The debate between Disney and Universal continues to spark conversation, especially with the anticipation surrounding Epic Universe. Despite this buzz, Universal's theme park revenue recently took a hit, with NBCUniversal reporting a 5% downturn to about $1.88 billion. This dip is largely attributed to the Los Angeles wildfires, which led to the closure of Universal Studios Hollywood and CityWalk.
Comcast revealed higher operating expenses, including hefty pre-opening costs for Epic Universe, set to debut in May 2025. Despite the short-term losses, Comcast remains optimistic, highlighting the strong growth trajectory of its theme parks and announcing a new park in the UK slated for 2031, potentially featuring attractions from *Lord of the Rings* and *James Bond*.
With Epic Universe's grand opening around the corner, Universal seems poised for future success. Are you planning to visit Universal soon? I'd love to hear your thoughts!
