Two attractions will temporarily close in 2027: Fyre Drill at Epic Universe and Harry Potter and the Forbidden Journey at Islands of Adventure.
Fyre Drill at Epic Universe
Fyre Drill will close from January 25, 2027 to February 4, 2027. It previously closed earlier this year.
Fyre Drill is an interactive boat ride run by the Viking twins Ruffnut and Tuffnut. Watch our ride POV from both teams’ perspectives below:
It’s normal for water rides to close in the winter for maintenance.
Harry Potter and the Forbidden Journey
Harry Potter and the Forbidden Journey will close from February 8, 2027 to February 19, 2027.
Enter through the towering castle gates and make your way down the familiar passageways and corridors of Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry. Then soar above the castle grounds as you join Harry Potter and his friends on a thrilling adventure. Groundbreaking, state-of-the-art technology (and a little magic) creates a one-of-a-kind ride.
