Universal Orlando’s Cinematic Celebration, the new nighttime lagoon show at Universal Studios Florida, has begun technical rehearsals. While the show has not officially opened, there is a chance to see limited previews during this time. Showtimes are listed on the official Universal Orlando app and on wait time boards throughout the park. Times are subject to change each day and there is no guarantee that the show will play each evening.
The show features full panoramic water screens, pyrotechnics, projection mapping onto surrounding buildings, and more than 120 dancing fountains. The presentation is filled with fun moments inspired by characters seen throughout Universal Orlando including the Minions, Harry Potter, Jurassic World, ET, Trolls and more. See more details about the limited previews for the show below, along with photographs from some of the first performances. And stay tuned for more theme park news and updates coming soon!
