Enter the World of How To Train Your Dragon at Universal's Epic Universe

The land’s entrance evokes the cinematic magic of the DreamWorks film.

• Hiccup’s Wing Gliders – “On this family thrill coaster, Hiccup invites brave new Vikings to take a ride in his latest glider contraption—a winged flying machine that launches aspiring Dragon Riders into the sky for a dragon’s eye view of Berk. Guests will fly alongside Hiccup and Toothless and reach speeds up to 45 mph as they soar around the perimeter of Berk— and even through the lagoon—while experiencing firsthand what it’s like to fly on a dragon.”

• The Untrainable Dragon – “Inspired by Universal Beijing Resort’s wildly successful Untrainable show, this dragon-filled live spectacular takes guests on an unforgettable journey with beloved characters Hiccup, Toothless, Gobber, and Astrid as they work together to solve the mystery of the Untrainable Dragon. This heartwarming story comes to life with captivating musical numbers, breathtaking sets, and life-sized dragons soaring overhead.”

• Fyre Drill – “Mischievous Viking twins Ruffnut and Tuffnut invite teams of Vikings to compete to outscore and out-soak each other on this wet-and-wild boat battle. Guests will board a colorful dragon-headed boat and blast water cannons at flame-like targets to practice putting out fires—a crucial skill to master when living with dragons.”

• Dragon Racer’s Rally – “Berk’s new Viking racers can practice aerobatic maneuvers and high-speed barrel rolls on two Viking-made dragon-riding trainers that reach heights of up to 67 feet in the air. Guests can control how ‘wild’ or ‘mild’ their experience will be as they perform high-flying, gravity-defying, swooping, and soaring skills that are necessary to earn the accolades worthy of a true champion dragon racer.”

• Spit Fyre Grill – “Overlooking the action of the Fyre Drill water attraction, Spit Fyre Grill is a quick-service dining location featuring delicious, hearty meals flame-seared by a helpful (unseen) dragon fry cook.”

• Hooligan’s Grog & Gruel – “Guests can grab quick bites at this festive racing-themed food stand located in the Viking Camp.”
• Themed shops - “An array of merchandise available at highly themed shops like Viking Traders, How to Treat Your Dragon, Hiccup’s Work Shop, and Toothless’ Treasures.”

• Immersive environments - “Within the bustling village, guests will find endless activity—from active dragons in their natural habitats and sheep attempting to disguise themselves as Terrible Terrordragons to sporadic bouts of fire—making Isle of Berk an attraction unto itself.”

• Meet Hiccup and Toothless – “Guests can visit the Haddock Paddock for an incredible meet-and-greet experience with heroic Dragon Rider, Hiccup, and pose for a photo with his friendly Night Fury, Toothless. Plus, throughout the day, guests may also encounter other familiar Vikings and dragons while exploring Berk.”

• Mead Hall – “The beating heart of Berk and the village’s main gathering hall, Mead Hall is where guests can feast like a Viking and enjoy a savory menu featuring a variety of meats, fish, sandwiches, and more along with a collection of meads and ciders.”

• Viking Training Camp – “Junior Vikings will learn everything they need to know about dragons as they climb, slide, and explore their way through this sprawling interactive adventure play camp—featuring a Viking agility course, a Toothless-themed teeter-totter, baby Gronckle dragon climbers, and so much more.”
