Last year, Universal Studios Japan announced a new Hollywood-themed nighttime parade, and as it prepares to debut next month, the park is offering a preview with new concept art.

The parade promises to bring together four distinctly different movie worlds, with sections highlighting “Harry Potter,” “Jurassic World,” “Minions,” and for their first appearance at Universal Studios Japan, the “Transformers.” Through the use of projection mapping, guests are immersed in a changing landscape of movies. Each film is also represented with floats and entertainers.
