Islands of Adventure is where a lot of the thrills live

Hogsmeade, big coasters, and lands that feel more “adventure” than backlot. If your teens only want one classic Universal park, they often point here.

What to decide

  • The Potter split

    Hogsmeade is here. Diagon Alley is in Studios. The train is a ticket question.

  • Coaster comfort

    This park can humble people who “like rides.” Be honest about inversions and launches.

  • Express

    Some Islands attractions have historically been Express exceptions. Ashley confirms the current list — do not memorize a 2022 blog.
