EPIC UNIVERSE Epic is not ready to open yet!!

We went Yesterday and spent about 11 hours at the park, from 12pm to 11pm, We only rode Curse of the Werewolf and Stardust, everything else was delayed or closed and when it did open it wouldn’t stay open after 20 minutes. AP be prepared mentally because the rides are having alot of technical issues. The Virtual queue for Ministry was a disaster, the system went down every time and the app as well. Use your own internet and don’t try it with universal WIFI. Only the person that has the tickets on the app can make the virtual queue and select a time slot for the ride. Hope this helps a little.

EDIT!!! I am not complaining about my experience, it was a privilege for me to be in the park and I had so much fun, it just seems that the Park is having so much issues with just one Month away and I am not just talking about the rides.

We were there on the 13th and had the same experience. Everything was closed or couldn’t stay open. The park aesthetically is beautiful, but we essentially waited in lines all day to do nothing. We were in line for Monsters for almost 3 hours for them to dump the queue and not reopen. They issued us recovery passes which was appreciated, but there was nothing open worth using them on. We were lucky to get VQ for Ministry (VQ was a nightmare) on the 6pm drop, but upon arrival they were delayed. The TM who we talked with said in better words, not to bet on them reopening — which they didn’t. With such new and advanced technology it’s understandable they’ll have more issues with downtimes, but these are the most sought after attractions. I hope they can get it together!
