When you want to know what the day has in store, you look to the TODAY show on NBC.
When you’re on the hunt for theme park expertise, you look to Universal TODAY (or you read Discover Universal Blog, of course).
Both bring you the latest news, expert guidance, and tips from your favorite crew of morning anchors.
Wait. Universal TODAY? That’s right! Think TODAY, but make it all about Universal Orlando Resort. July 29, 2026, marks the premiere of Universal TODAY, a new, quarterly series designed to help guests make the most of their visit to Universal Orlando with insider tips, seasonal highlights, must-try food, attractions, and exclusive, behind-the-scenes looks.
Universal TODAY is filmed on-site at Universal Orlando Resort and features the TODAY hosts you know and love. Watch as they share their boots-on-the-ground methods to maximize your theme park experience through three engaging segments such as “Walk in the Parks,” “Let’s Eat,” and “Behind the Attraction” in this new, ongoing series.
In the first episode of Universal TODAY, you’ll be greeted by one of America’s friendliest faces, Al Roker. Join him as he explores all the best attractions, entertainment, and seasonal experiences that all four theme parks at Universal Orlando Resort have to offer — and don’t be afraid to take his advice, too. This guy knows his stuff!
