Jurassic World Ride

Hi,

Does anyone know if Universal Studios Orlando are opening a new Jurassic World ride?

I have seen one has recently opened at Universal Studios Hollywood.

Many Thanks!

There wasn’t a new one opened at the Hollywood park it was a revamped version of the old ride it’s still very similar to what it was before, there are no plans to change the one at Orlando as there concentrating on building the new Jurassic coaster but mayb once it’s done and opened in 2021 they may turn there attention to the riverboat ride

Well I'm happy to hear that they abandoned the plan of shutting down the Jurassic Park River ride for a redo, I didn't know they changed their minds. Thanks for that OrlandoGuy!

According to some articles from may this year, April 27th is being keyed as when building on the new raptor ride will stop, hopefully it's open around this time but take it with a pinch of salt.

They're building it near the lake in front of the Jurassic Discovery Centre at the moment. It's a launched steel coaster, possibly with a velociraptor theme. Universal did submit a trademark for a "Velocicoaster", so that might be what it's called.

I'd heard it was rumoured to open in autumn 2020 as well as rumours of an early 2021 opening.

Universal hasn't announced anything about it yet. I don't think they've even officially confirmed its existence.

I can't see it opening before May 2021. This isn't just another Hulk. It will be an in-between of a Hulk and a Hagrids where you will be able to see the ride from across the lake but there will be a lot more theming in and around the Discovery centre.

The likelihood is it will be another intamin rollercoaster and we all know the issues they can have at the start as Hagrid has proved. So after the build there will be an extensive testing element so can't see with how much is left to do it is going to be opening in 2020.

I would expect that we will see the River Adventure change to JW at some point, but not for a good 4 years. With them building the new Raptor coaster and it rumoured to open in 2021, they won't throw anymore money at Islands for a long time, they will be diverting their money in to Epic Universe.
