Stardust Racers Reopens: Safety, Accessibility, and Universal’s Toughest Balancing Act

Update: 2025-10-06

Description

Universal has reopened Stardust Racers at Epic Universe, following a fatal incident earlier this year, and introduced new signage and stricter accessibility requirements. The latest safety guide now warns guests with weakened bones, limited mobility, or difficulty maintaining an upright position not to ride—and the “must walk independently” clause now extends across multiple attractions. Philip and Scott unpack what this means for operators who must balance guest safety, accessibility, and legal liability. Should Universal have waited longer to reopen, or do the updated rules demonstrate responsible transparency? Plus, Universal’s Vegas venue gets festive with Krampus and Kin, a dark-holiday overlay for Horror Unleashed. Listen to weekly BONUS episodes on our Patreon.
