New experiences are coming to Universal's domestic theme parks that will invite guests to find themselves "Dancing Through Life" and "Defying Gravity" as they immerse themselves in the world of "Wicked."
In celebration of Universal Pictures' "Wicked" being released on Nov. 22, the experiences will open at Universal Studios Hollywood and Universal Orlando Resort in late October.
At Universal Orlando, "Wicked: The Experience" will take over the space formerly occupied by the UNIVRS store near the front gate of Universal Studios Florida. It will feature the re-creation of locations from "Wicked," including Shiz University and the Emerald City as well as props and costumes from the film.
At Universal Studios Hollywood, the Feature Presentation store within the park and the UNIVRS store at Universal CityWalk Hollywood will morph into Wicked experiences. They will feature props, costumes and a photo op. When the film makes its debut, costumes will be displayed at the Universal Cinema, an AMC Theatre in CityWalk.
Both park locations in California and Florida will feature specialty dining items inspired by "Wicked," as will Voodoo Doughnuts and the Toothsome Chocolate Emporium & Savory Feast Kitchen in both CityWalk locations.
Specially themed merchandise will also be on sale.
Later this year and early next, Wicked experiences will be coming to Universal Studios Singapore and Universal Studios Japan.
