Hollywood Dream Backdrop Song Schedule
Hollywood Dream - The Ride: Backdrop is the reverse-facing version of Universal Studios Japan's outdoor coaster. The anniversary program rotates music tied to earlier USJ milestone years across separate windows.
The forward-facing Hollywood Dream - The Ride uses "Destiny Journeys" by Vaundy during the 25th-anniversary window, which runs through March 30, 2027.
25th Anniversary Attraction Changes
The music switch is part of Universal Studios Japan's Discover U anniversary program. The program has refreshed Hollywood Dream, Hollywood Dream Backdrop, and Flight of the Hippogriff, with JAWS scheduled to join around September.
Track selections can change without notice, so guests planning around a specific song should check the ride listing again before visiting.
