Universal Orlando’s Cinematic Celebration is a brand new all-new nighttime lagoon show that officially opened this week at Universal Studios Florida. The spectacle offers a brand-new way to cap off a day at Universal Studios with an “epic cinema under the stars” in the heart of the theme park.

The show uses “World of Color”-style format to seamlessly blends panoramic water screens accented by multi-layer water screens, pyrotechnics, lasers, projection mapping and more than 120 dancing fountains to transform the lagoon and surrounding buildings into a vivid celebration of beloved characters from Universal attractions and some of the world’s biggest films. And guests will watch it all come to life in an all-new dedicated viewing area designed specifically for the show.

Guests will witness moments from the Harry Potter film series conjured by way of spells, terrifying roars from Jurassic World dinosaurs, high-octane action from the Fast & Furious films, mischief by the Minions from Illumination’s Despicable Me and more come to life each night in the heart of the Universal Studios lagoon.

Guests can also enjoy spectacular nighttime entertainment during their visit to Universal Orlando Resort this summer with The Nighttime Lights at Hogwarts Castle in Universal’s Islands of Adventure.
