YouTube Video Description

We experienced our first Orlando Informer Meetup at Universal Orlando! Is this after-hours event worth the price? We’re breaking down the food, the zero wait times for rides like VelociCoaster and Hagrid's, and our overall first-time experience.! 0:00 Intro & Check-in 1:12 Entering Islands of Adventure 2:48 Event Officially Starts 3:32 Riding VelociCoaster 5:24 Unlimited Food & Drinks 8:00 Crossing to Universal Studios Florida 10:47 Diagon Alley & Gringotts 13:13 Final Review: Is it worth it? The Orlando Informer Meetups are one of the coolest ways to experience Universal Orlando, and this time Kelly and I decided to check it out together. Walking into the parks after hours feels completely different—crowds are low, the pathways are wide open, and you can hop on your favorite attractions with barely any wait. It gives you this rare chance to slow down, enjoy the atmosphere, and take in the parks in a way that’s impossible during normal operating hours. For us, it felt like having Universal almost entirely to ourselves. www.orlandoinformer.com One of the biggest highlights of the night is the unlimited food and snacks, and trust me, Kelly and I took full advantage of it. From grabbing our favorite bites to trying things we normally skip, it’s all included, which makes the whole experience feel even more special. Add in the entertainment, character moments, and the fun energy of being surrounded by fellow theme‑park fans, and the meetup becomes a night you don’t forget. Whether you're a local or visiting from out of town, the Orlando Informer Meetups deliver a relaxed, VIP‑style Universal experience that keeps people coming back again and again.
