Among the standout additions are tracks from How to Train Your Dragon, part of a beloved DreamWorks franchise that will have its own themed land in Epic Universe when it opens in 2025. Songs like “Test Drive” and “Flying with Mother” evoke the wonder of flying with dragons, building anticipation for the thrills to come. This new music choice perfectly complements the adventurous atmosphere of the park, making guests feel as though they’re already stepping into Berk before they’ve even entered.

Epic Universe is poised to be Universal’s most ambitious park yet, featuring several immersive lands, including a How to Train Your Dragon area, a new Wizarding World of Harry Potter experience centered around the Ministry of Magic, and a Universal Monsters section where legends like Dracula and Frankenstein will come to life. Guests can also look forward to Super Nintendo World, where they’ll step into the vibrant landscapes of their favorite video games, complete with interactive rides and character encounters.

The entrance music update also includes familiar pieces from Harry Potter, such as “Buckbeak’s Flight” and “Harry’s Wondrous World,” deepening the sense of magic as guests pass under the arches. This musical connection bridges the current Wizarding World attractions in Universal’s existing parks with what’s to come in Epic Universe. Other franchises, such as Jurassic World, are also represented, enhancing the cinematic atmosphere of the entryway.
