The weekend doesn’t end when Saturday night’s concerts are over.

Admission to the Sunday morning worship service is included with any Rock the Universe ticket, giving attendees one final opportunity to come together before the weekend concludes.

Rock the Universe 2027 Ticket Options

Because this is a separately ticketed event, regular daytime admission to Universal Studios Florida does not automatically include access to the event.

Universal offers several ticket options depending on how you plan to experience the weekend.

Guests can purchase individual event tickets, while options are also available for those who want to combine their Rock the Universe visit with additional time at Universal Orlando Resort.

Group ticket options are also available, making the event particularly convenient for youth groups attending together.
