About Universal Studios

When you think Hollywood, your mind probably goes straight to the Hollywood Sign or the Walk of Fame on Hollywood Boulevard. Those are some fantastic places to visit, but there is much more to Hollywood than superstars and iconic signs. Incorporated in 1903, Hollywood is a neighborhood of Los Angeles in Southern California known for its film industry. In fact, they have been filming major motion pictures in Hollywood since 1912. So, it just makes sense that a theme park about movies would be built in the middle of Hollywood in Universal Studios Hollywood.

Whether you want to get some thrills on some seriously scary rides, meet some favorites like Bart Simpson and his family, or explore the Despicable Me Minion Mayhem home, you can do it all and then some here. Check out the DreamWorks Theatre, take a ride on the Flight of the Hippogriff, or watch a special effects show. They even have Super Silly Fun Land and the Silly Swirly Fun Ride for the little kiddies.

Enjoy the animal show and then eating at one of their 57 eateries before grabbing some souvenirs or other unique gifts at one of the 37 shops. You’ll be glad to know that Bounce has a bunch of places you can leave your luggage in Hollywood so you can enjoy the rides and fun without worrying about your suitcases.

Fun fact: The first tours at Universal Studios cost a mere five cents, with lunch included.
