Height Requirements at Universal Orlando Resort

At Universal Orlando Resort, safety is a top priority. While the attractions have been designed so that the maximum number of guests can enjoy them, please be aware that many attractions have restrictions and guidelines to make sure guests have a safe, enjoyable experience. They include language about the nature and dynamics of the experience, as well as guest height, medical conditions or other factors that should be considered before riding.

Many attractions use safety restraints that some guests may find uncomfortable or that may occasionally prevent an individual from experiencing the attraction. Some attractions have “test seats” available so that guests can determine comfort and fit for themselves before riding. These are designated with an asterisk below (*)

Please take note of Universal Orlando height requirements, guidelines and restrictions before riding. To assist you in planning your visit, we have provided a list of attractions that have height requirements. These are the Universal Orlando Height Requirements restrictions and height requirements for Universal Studios Florida and Universal’s Islands of Adventure theme parks.
