And now we know the prices.
Transformation Ticket experienceAn Experiment Ticket, which includes just face painting, will cost $45 per tax. But the Transformation Ticket, which includes both makeup and accessories, will cost $169 plus tax. Universal Orlando Annual Passholders can get a 10% discount on these 20-minute experiences. You can book times now via Universal Orlando’s website.The prices compare favorably to Walt Disney World’s Bibbidi Bobbidi Boutique at Magic Kingdom park, which is open only to kids and costs $99.95 plus tax for hairstyling, makeup, nail polish, a T-shirt and a princess sash and cinch bag. Adding a princess gown and accessories costs an extra $100 – and up – above that base price. (You just know there’s a kid out there who is going to want to be a princess one day and a monster the next. You go, Fiona.)Universal Epic Universe opens officially May 22 on the new south campus of the Universal Orlando Resort, near the Orange County Convention Center.Planning a Universal Orlando visit?To learn more about Universal Orlando’s theme parks, please click over to our one-page visitors guides, which include our reader rankings as well as on-ride videos and links to reviews:For tickets, including those for the new Epic Universe, please visit our ticket partner’s Universal Orlando tickets page.For assistance in planning a complete Universal Orlando vacation, including discounts on bundled Epic Universe tickets and on-site hotel stays, please contact our travel agent for a free, no-obligation vacation quote.Remember that whenever you buy tickets or book vacations through our partners, a small portion of that goes to support Theme Park Insider.
