Rider Safety
View Before You Queue
Your safety is our top priority at Universal Studios Hollywood. While our rides and attractions are designed to provide unique experiences and thrills, it’s important to read the safety information at each attraction so that you can make an informed decision about your ability to safely and conveniently experience everything Universal Studios Hollywood has to offer.
Guide for Rider Safety and Accessibility
To see a list of requirements and accommodations for all attractions, please see the Guide for Rider Safety and Accessibility.
Safety First
All passenger restraint systems- including lap bars, shoulder harnesses and seat belts – must be positioned and fastened properly to assure your safety. Guests who don’t fit properly in a safety restraint won’t be allowed to ride. Large-framed guests may not be accommodated on the following rides and are strongly encouraged to try the test seats provided at the entrance of the attractions to ensure their ability to ride.
- Flight of the Hippogriff™
- Harry Potter and the Forbidden Journey™
- Revenge of the Mummy – The Ride
- The Secret Life of Pets: Off the Leash
Be Aware, Take Care
Ride Warning Signs can be found at the entrance of each ride to help you figure out which attractions are suitable for you. Please read all health and safety requirements for each attraction, as they are not all the same. You know your physical conditions and limitations. If you suspect your health could be at risk for any reason, or that you could aggravate a pre-existing condition of any kind, do not ride.
Safety Is No Accident
Both your safety, and that of our team members, are Universal Studios Hollywood’s top priority and we’ve taken important steps to make things safe for everyone. Loose articles like cell phones, cameras, umbrellas and keys are prohibited at most attractions, and should be left with a non-rider or secured in a locker. Items that could extend out of the ride vehicle – either before or during the ride – should be properly secured before riding. If you have particularly long hair, long and flowing clothing or long and flowing accessories, you’ll be required to take certain precautions before riding any attraction.
