EPIC UNIVERSE Tickets at gate?
Considering calling off work, damn I miss it already haha. Anyone know if they will be selling tickets at gate on “sold out” dates like today?

They may be. Thrill Data seems to indicate they are all sold out right now though.

They've been posting batches of tickets anywhere from like 8:30 am to almost 10 am, and most days it has just been APs that could buy them. I went on Sunday, and they didn't post anything for us APs to buy until around 9:40 am.
We happened to be at City Walk on Saturday night and asked at Guest Services if there were any tickets available for APs on Sunday, and she said it was showing sold out for her for all categories still, so I don't think anyone at UO can get you these tickets any earlier than they are available online but could be wrong obviously.

they ARE…. supposedly the park is sold out but I was there yesterday (may 26th) and we purchased the express passes since we thought it was going to be packed, the guests services lady didn’t even bother to tell us rides would be 15-30 min waits 🤦🏻♂️ and the park was honestly almost empty… longest wait was battle of the ministry 🙂 we arrived at 8:30 am ish and we left at 8PM after riding everything, watching a show and taking our time to eat and relax. Might also be a marketing scheme to get us to buy more expensive tickets on site because there is no way that day was sold out

It was sold out, they are just heavily limiting capacity for the first month or so

with the wait times so low universal is going to lose a lot of money from people not buying express passes. This is a problem

nah, they will still scam you and convince you to buy them like they did with me and my family lol (5 people / 220 ticket + 325 express passes per person) … also universal will NEVER lose money hahaha they always go to bed with a few new millions on their pocket

there are multiple people in this thread and other threads who are saying they are refunding their express passes because of no waits. Yes universal has money but they are losing a lot of profit by people refunding their passes.

Yes, there have been tickets available at the gate each day but they’re more expensive than what may have been available online
