Universal Orlando Resort, often shortened to Universal Orlando, is a 1,291-acre theme park and entertainment resort complex located in Orlando, Florida. It is the flagship of the Universal Destinations and Experiences theme park chain. Following the success of Universal Studios Florida, which opened in 1990, NBCUniversal shifted into transforming the area into a large resort with the intention of competing with Walt Disney World Resort. The first major expansion occurred in 1999 with the opening of a second theme park, Universal Islands of Adventure, along with a shopping promenade and nightlife district called Universal CityWalk. Both additions helped to form the new resort, which was briefly dubbed Universal Studios Escape. The resort expanded further in 2017 with the addition of Volcano Bay, a 30-acre water park, and again in 2025 with the upcoming theme park, Universal Epic Universe.
