Announced last year after the closure of Kids Zone, DreamWorks land will become the new place to be for younger and, young at heart, park goers in Universal Studios Florida.

The new land will bring character meet and greets along with rides themed to everyone's favourite DreamWorks characters.

We can expect to see Shrek's house, hang out with Kung Fu Panda and Gabby from Gabby’s Dollhouse. Along with the Trolls, there will be "interactive play spaces" and will be a place to let kids "imaginations will run wild."

Universal Destinations & Experiences have confirmed that DreamsWorks land will open some time in 2024, but no precise date has been announced.
