Things to do in Universal City

No visit to Los Angeles would be complete without a tour of Universal Studios, one of the oldest working studios in Hollywood and home to one of America’s best-loved theme parks.

Visit the STAPLES Center and see a major sporting or entertainment event. This arena is home to the Los Angeles Lakers and the Los Angeles Clippers National Basketball Association (NBA) teams. Take a tour of downtown Los Angeles and view the STAPLES Center or book a ticket for a major event.

Get the iconic southern California sun-and-surf experience at Santa Monica Beach. Discover a sandy stretch of oceanfront delights close to one of the nation’s biggest cities.

Hollywood Boulevard is one of the most recognizable districts in Los Angeles. Visit the Hollywood Walk of Fame, with stars on the sidewalk honoring thousands of celebrities. See the famous TCL Chinese Theatre, the setting for countless major film premieres.

If you’re looking for unspoilt views and tranquil ocean walks, Venice Beach is not the place for you. If, on the other hand, you crave some zany company and don’t mind being dazzled by outrageous outfits and flamboyant attention seekers, there’s no place on earth you’ll love more!

A stroll through Universal CityWalk, leading to and from Universal Studios Hollywood, can extend the fun of a theme park visit, but this three-block dining and entertainment district is worth a trip for its own sake. Over 30 restaurants offer varied options for a quick snack or a filling meal. You’ll find everything from Brazilian steakhouse fare and grilled shrimp to sushi, hot dogs, pretzels and frozen yogurt along CityWalk.

Come to The Wizarding World of Harry Potter™ at Universal Studios Hollywood to experience firsthand the magic and wonder you’ve delighted seeing over and over in J.K. Rowling’s fantastic books and movies. Attention to detail, state-of-the-art robotics technology and some wizardry make this theme park an authentic recreation of the worlds that Harry, Ron and Hermione inhabit.
