ORLANDO, Fla. — Universal Orlando on Thursday announced that select tickets and upgrades for Halloween Horror Nights 2026 are now available for purchase.

The iconic event is returning for its 35th year on select nights from Aug. 28 through Nov. 1.

Universal Orlando last week announced the theme for this year’s Halloween Horror Nights: “Infernal Carnival of Nightmares.”

Dubbed “Universal Orlando’s most expansive Halloween Horror Nights event ever,” guests can look forward to 10 new haunted houses, themed entertainment, scare zones, street experiences and more.

Universal shared that Halloween Horror Nights icons Jack the Clown and Dr. Oddfellow will team up for the first time to “unleash their reign of terror” in their new haunted house, “Jack & Oddfellow: Chaos & Control.”

Here are the select tickets, upgrades and packages guests can begin to purchase for Halloween Horror Nights 35, according to Universal Orlando:

Single-night tickets (valid on any one event night)

Universal Orlando also shared that its exclusive, limited-capacity event, Premium Scream Night, will return to Halloween Horror Nights this year for two nights: Thursday, Aug. 27 and Monday, Oct. 19.
