Inspired by Universal Pictures’ Global Blockbuster Franchise, the Completely Reimagined Ride Will Fuse 21st Century Technology with Astounding Special Effects and Never-Before-Seen Dinosaurs
Today Universal Studios Hollywood announced the highly anticipated “Jurassic World Ride.” In 2019, colossal, dimensional dinosaurs will once again roam the Earth and astound guests when an all-new technologically-advanced epic adventure inspired by Universal Pictures’ blockbuster film franchise debuts at the park.
Drawing from the favorite elements of the original “Jurassic Park—The Ride,” this next-generation thrill ride will be a fully reimagined iteration of the ground-breaking adventure, elevating every facet of the experience. With the introduction of never-before-seen dinosaurs, enhanced storytelling, lush scenic design, an entirely new color scheme and uncompromised state-of-the-art technology, the ride will capture elements never experienced within a theme park.
On this all-new heart-pounding river raft adventure, guests will get doused as a colossal Mosasaursus dives for its great white shark snack and come face-to-face with the brutal Indominus rex when it escapes its enclosure. But thanks to an unlikely hero, a 50-foot Tyrannosaurs rex, you’ll be rescued… right before your final plunge down a treacherous 84-foot waterfall.
To rally fans for the finale of “Jurassic Park—The Ride” on September 3, 2018, Universal Studios Hollywood has launched a “Countdown to the Extinction” campaign—inviting guests from around the world to experience the ride before its transformation into the all-new “Jurassic World Ride” in 2019. “Jurassic Park—The Ride” will officially become extinct on September 3, 2018. The Jurassic Cove restaurant and Jurassic Outfitters retail store also will close with the attraction and reopen with the new experience in 2019.
“The one thing that the history of evolution has taught us is that life finds a way” was famously uttered by Jurassic Park’s Dr. Ian Malcom. In the spirit of this pledge, Universal Studios Hollywood is rallying guests and fans to visit The Entertainment Capital of L.A. as it celebrates this epic ride and prepares for the arrival of the “Jurassic World Ride.”
