Universal CityWalk Hollywood is a free-to-enter, three-block entertainment and shopping promenade at the entrance to Universal Studios Hollywood, open to visitors whether or not they have theme park tickets.
The promenade mixes full-service restaurants like VIVO Italian Kitchen and Antojitos Cocina Mexicana with quick bites such as Pink’s Famous Hot Dogs, alongside themed shops for Harry Potter, SUPER NINTENDO WORLD, Sanrio, and a West Coast NBA Store. Entertainment options include an 18-screen Universal Cinema with an IMAX theater, the iFLY indoor skydiving experience, and the “5 Towers” outdoor concert stage lit by LED displays.
Most visitors spend 1 to 2 hours here browsing shops and grabbing a meal before or after the theme park, though those catching a movie or live show can easily spend half a day.
