Universal Studios Hollywood 

Currently, Universal Studios Hollywood is the only Universal theme park that has yet to reopen. There is no reopening date set for the theme park at this time. Much like Disney is struggling to reopen Disneyland Resort’s two theme parks — Disneyland and Disney California Adventure — Universal is also struggling to reopen its Hollywood theme park. Regulations that were put in place due to the ongoing pandemic have stalled the reopening of these parks.

You can however enjoy going to Universal CityWalk in Hollywood and grab some to-go food, do some holiday shopping, or just enjoy a stroll while you take in the beautiful holiday decorations.
