Universal Orlando has two parking destinations. Drive to 1001 Epic Boulevard for Epic Universe. Use the garage at 6000 Universal Boulevard for Universal Studios Florida, Islands of Adventure, Volcano Bay and CityWalk.
Regular self-parking is currently $35 per vehicle. Keep the receipt or parking QR code and valid photo identification if you plan to leave, return or drive between the two parking destinations later that day.
Which Universal Orlando parking address should you use?
| Destination | Address | Serves |
|---|---|---|
| Epic Universe parking | 1001 Epic Boulevard Orlando, FL 32819 | Epic Universe |
| Main Universal Orlando garage | 6000 Universal Boulevard Orlando, FL 32819 | Universal Studios Florida, Islands of Adventure, Volcano Bay and CityWalk |
Check the destination before starting navigation. Epic Universe is not reached through the main Universal Boulevard garage, and entering the wrong address adds an unnecessary transfer.
Universal Orlando parking prices
These prices were checked September 14, 2026. They include tax, but parking prices are seasonal, may vary by day and remain subject to availability.
| Parking type | Current price | What to know |
|---|---|---|
| Regular self-parking | $35 | Same price prepaid or at the toll plaza |
| Motorcycle parking | $35 | Tax included |
| Prime self-parking | $50–$60 | Subject to availability |
| Prime upgrade | $14–$25 | Available to eligible prepaid guests, passholders and select groups |
| RV or bus parking | $45 | Use regular parking rather than valet |
Prepaid regular parking is valid for all four theme parks and CityWalk, but it is tied to the selected date and can sell out. Paying ahead saves a purchase step, not money at the current $35 rate.
Annual Pass parking benefits begin after the first visit. Power Passholders receive 50% off regular parking. Preferred and Premier Passholders receive free regular parking. Prime and valet benefits differ by pass and remain subject to availability, so check the terms attached to the pass before relying on an upgrade.
How Volcano Bay parking works
Volcano Bay uses the main garage at 6000 Universal Boulevard. Follow the resort signs to the dedicated Volcano Bay section, then board the complimentary shuttle to the water park entrance.
Leave time for that extra step in both directions. Take a photo of the garage section and row before boarding the shuttle. Wet shoes, tired children and a forgotten row number make the return feel much longer than it needs to.
Can you leave and return with the same parking payment?
Yes. A vehicle can leave and return on the same day during scheduled operating hours. Present the parking receipt or QR code and valid photo identification at the toll plaza.
The same proof also works when driving between Epic Universe and the main Universal Orlando garage on one day. Prime parking is not guaranteed when you return, even if it was available during the first entry.
Is parking free after 6 p.m.?
Regular self-parking at the main Universal Orlando garage is free after 6 p.m. on eligible nights. There are three important exceptions:
- The offer does not apply during Halloween Horror Nights event nights.
- It is unavailable on December 31.
- It does not apply at Epic Universe.
Additional restrictions can be added. If an evening plan depends on free parking, check the current parking page before driving over.
Universal Cinemark also offers reimbursement of regular parking for qualifying matinee visits from 11 a.m. to 6 p.m. Buy at least two matinee tickets, pay the regular parking fee first and present the receipt for reimbursement. This option does not apply at Epic Universe.
Accessible parking, wheelchairs and EV charging
Designated accessible spaces require a valid disability placard or license plate displayed properly. The enclosed main garages have moving sidewalks, escalators and elevators.
Courtesy wheelchairs can help guests travel from parking to the wheelchair-rental locations near the park entrances or to CityWalk. At Epic Universe, courtesy wheelchairs are near accessible parking. At CityWalk, they are beside the first elevator bank on the third floor.
EV charging is available in Epic Universe Prime Parking. Spaces are limited and additional fees apply.
Ride-share, taxi and drop-off locations
Drop-off and pickup do not carry a parking fee. Use the address that matches the destination:
| Destination | Ride-share address | Where to follow signs |
|---|---|---|
| Epic Universe | 1201 Epic Boulevard Orlando, FL 32819 | Ride App Drop-Off/Pick-Up |
| Studios, Islands, Volcano Bay and CityWalk | 6000 Universal Boulevard Orlando, FL 32819 | North Parking Garage |
Confirm the exact pickup pin before requesting the car, especially at closing. The Epic Universe ride-share address is different from its self-parking address.
Small steps that make the garage easier
- Save the receipt: it is the key to same-day re-entry and moving between the two parking destinations.
- Photograph the row: include the level, section name and nearest marker.
- Set the correct address first: 1001 Epic Boulevard for Epic parking, 6000 Universal Boulevard for the other parks and CityWalk.
- Keep the ride-share address separate: Epic pickup and drop-off use 1201 Epic Boulevard.
- Ask for help when needed: parking areas have call boxes, and attendants can arrange a courtesy battery jump.
