Get Universal Express Passes
The Universal Express pass is one of the most coveted deals at Universal Orlando. But fluctuating prices dependent on crowd calendars can make this pass expensive during usual park hours. Only during Rock the Universe can guests have the ultimate access to Rock the Universe Express for one low price. 1 ride is $19.99. The whole night is $29.99. You do the math. There are multiple popular attractions closing early too (some before midnight) – so now is the time to make the most of your ride time. Here’s a list of the Express Pass rides open ALL night long:
Open Rock the Universe Express rides:
- Hollywood Rip Ride Rocket

Great tunes and all of the best attractions. It’s really a unique theme park experience unlike any other. And with rides open from 4 pm to 1 am nightly, you can take advantage of smaller crowds and shorter lines.

Plan Out Your Concert Viewing Times
Over 30+ concerts, meet and greets and autograph sessions are happening all throughout the night. Make sure to plan your Rock the Universe visit accordingly. There’s a handy event guide at the entrance with all of the times, stage and youth leader lounge locations and more.
3 Rock the Universe Stages:
- Music Plaza Stage (the main stage) – by the Hollywood Rip Ride Rockit Roller Coaster. This stage is great for those with sleepy kids. There are plenty of big screen TV’s live streaming the concert in case you’re worried about noise. Get there early for a good spot.
- Hollywood Stage – on the water between Transformers and E.T. (Youth leaders have a special viewing area of this stage from the Hollywood Lounge.)
- FanZone Stage – between the streets of New York – access via Revenge of the Mummy side.
Concerts this year included some of the most popular names in Christian music including Lauren Daigle, TobyMac, Jesus Culture, For King & Country, Casting Crowns and more.
Eat ALL of the Things
Hope that you saved your appetite! Some of the best theme park food venues are open during Rock the Universe. Now is the time to eat Fish and Chips and drink Butterbeer at the Leaky Cauldron or grab a Big Pink Donut from Lard Lad. Keep in mind that not all venues will be open and some will close early – but this is a great time to sample some of the best eats Universal Orlando has to offer.
Rock the Whole Weekend Long
Rock the Universe is the ultimate opportunity to combine your love of the best in Christian music and the best in theme park rides in one weekend. Don’t forget to also take advantage of the amazing candlelight ceremony on Saturday nights and the ultimate worship service in the park on Sunday morning too.

I had no idea they had so many concerts! I know some little Minions fans who would love that ride. Whoever came up with the idea of the single rider lines is a genius. At first I thought, who goes to a place like that alone, then I thought of all the people like myself who can’t go on many rides because of motion sickness and so whoever they’re with could use the single rider lines!
