Universal announced the new security setup includes three hubs: the main entry plaza, a checkpoint adjacent to the Jurassic Parking structure near NBC Sports Grill &amp; Brew and the new Mr. BBQ restaurant, and another near Margaritaville in the former iFly location.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-282431\" src=\"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-fl\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/Citywalk-Universal-Hollywood-2.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"836\" height=\"900\"  \/>Jurassic Parking<\/p>\n<p>\u201cAs the Universal Studios Hollywood destination continues to evolve, we are aligning our security protocols with other Universal destinations across the country by adding metal detection hubs adjacent to the parking structures,\u201d a Universal Studios Hollywood spokesperson said in a press release to <a href=\"https:\/\/ktla.com\/news\/local-news\/universal-studios-hollywood-security-update\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener nofollow\">KTLA<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-351846\" src=\"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-fl\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/2021-reopening-california-universal-hollywood-citywalk-3-scaled.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"2560\" height=\"1920\"  \/>Universal CityWalk<\/p>\n<p>The goal of the new system is to place CityWalk inside a secured perimeter, similar to the setup at the <a href=\"https:\/\/allears.net\/disneyland\/dlr-planning\/disneyland-resort\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener nofollow\">Disneyland Resort<\/a> in neighboring Anaheim. There, guests pass through security before accessing <a href=\"https:\/\/allears.net\/downtown-disney-disneyland-resort\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener nofollow\">Downtown Disney<\/a>, which leads to the theme parks <a href=\"https:\/\/allears.net\/disneyland\/dlr-planning\/overview-disneyland\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener nofollow\">Disneyland<\/a>\u00a0and <a href=\"https:\/\/allears.net\/disneyland\/dlr-planning\/disney-california-adventure\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener nofollow\">Disney California Adventure<\/a>.
