Universal Orlando is proposing reopening to the public on June 5, a plan that has been endorsed by the Orange County Economic Recovery Task Force but must still get approval from Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis (R) and Orange County Mayor Jerry Demings.
Universal Orlando executive John Sprouls said the parks would start reopening on June 1, with only team members allowed on property. On June 3 and 4, access would be granted to some Universal Orlando passholders.
