  • March 12, 2026

ORLANDO, Fla. – Universal Volcano Bay Nights is back this summer, giving guests an after-dark spin on the resort’s award-winning water park.

A Beach Bash at Waturi Beach will feature a live DJ and meet-and-greets with DreamWorks Animation characters from Shrek and Madagascar. The park will hand out complimentary treats including Blue Raspberry Churro Bites and garlic parmesan-flavored popcorn, and guests can purchase specialty food and beverages at select locations.

Volcano Bay Nights dates are May 3, 10, 17, 22, and 31; June 5, 12, 18, and 25; July 10 and 17; and Aug. 7, 14, and 21.
