Help planning VIP day

I have a VIP tour booked on Fri 12/6. Taking my 9 year old son. One day only and want to make sure we fit everything in.

Tour is at 10:45 and park closes at 6pm. When I booked I thought park would be open later given it’s a Friday in December. Realistically how much time will we have after the tour? I’m worried there will be other things he wants to do but it will be closing time.

SNW is the priority. I just booked EA so we can get in at 9am to play the games. Park opens at 10am - anything else we should try and do before the tour?

Wicked in January?

I am visiting universal Hollywood with my boyfriend the first week of January and was just wondering if anyone knows/suspects if Wicked merch will still be available?

I’m sure less focus will be placed on it (in stores and stuff) but hoping they’ll at least still be available to purchase. Also I know toothsome has wicked themed milkshakes right now. I don’t suspect those will still be available in January although I’m hopeful!

Thanks!

Where to find times for the Magic of Christmas at Hogwarts Castle show?

I see if on the map in the app, but clicking on it doesn't bring up any showtimes. Google says to check the "entertainment" section of the app to find showtimes, but I don't see that anywhere. Is it only on certain days maybe?

Best Ticket Options for one day?

My family planning to go next month We usually buy the annual pass but this time we aren’t thinking to buy one we had the highest pass that allows you to go on rides after 3pm

Is there a ticket option that is similar to that?

Discussion time :D

What do you think hinders the park from being a truly great experience that is on the same caliber as other immersive theme park experiences? And give your opinions! And what improvements do you think should be made to the park. Or what do you think should be brought back? Horror Nights opinions welcome. • For me, I think Lower Lot needs a paint job. I know it seems insignificant, but the color palette makes me think of a strip mall in the desert. Jurassic and Transformers already have a grey facade, why not paint the rest to resemble the new paint job the sound stages have? Another point I have is Illumination Courtyard. I know it’s not for me but there’s no sense of wonder there and it cheaply appeals to kids. Which sucks because there’s other places in the park like Nintendo World that has that sense of wonder and awe factor while appealing to all ages. I also think The Mummy’s time is up. It was great for the time being and still holds up as a good indoor coaster but its age could not be more prominent. And not that many people resonate with the movie now as they did back then. A Disney style reskin of the attraction would definitely benefit the lower lot with great up to date attractions. The Nope section of the Studio Tour is soooooooooo boring. It also doesn’t help that F&F follows after it. But even if you’ve watched Nope, the effect is not as useful in the daytime, which is when the majority of the tours take place. And it’s time for serving the Terror Tram might be over so why keep it? Anyways, those are some of my thoughts, what are some that you have? :)
