Every year students from the University of Central Florida get the chance to head down to Universal to visit the theme park through a program called Universal Knights, which is funded by the Student Government Association.
This year, the event will be taking place on April 17 and will be held at Universal Studios instead of Islands of Adventure.
““We decided to go with Universal Studios to give students the full theme park experience. Islands of Adventure is under some construction and remodeling while Universal Studios recently opened the Gringotts Ride and the Harry Potter expansion, which many students are excited for,” said Gulreen Kassoo, SGA’s Director of Campus Life. “This way students can experience both Universal parks during their time at UCF.”
Students may enter the park starting at 4 p.m. and stay until 1 a.m., according to a press release sent out by SGA.
Tickets for the event will be distributed on campus on the following dates.
Monday, April 4: 2 p.m.
Wednesday, April 6: 6 p.m.
Thursday, April 7: 8 a.m.
Saturday, April 9: 12 p.m.
Tuesday, April 12: 10 a.m.
Ticket distribution will be at the CFE Arena on all dates listed above except for April 9. On that day, tickets will be given out at the John T. Washington Center.
