Official Opening Date + New Aerial Views of Universal's Volcano Bay

Universal has announced that their new water theme park, Volcano Bay, will open to the public on May 25th. That means that in a little over three months visitors to the resort will be able to check out the "immersive environments, exhilarating rides, relaxing escapes and amazing technology" that Volcano Bay has to offer.

In a post about Volcano Bay's official opening date, Universal also gave readers a peek at the park's new TapuTapu wearable technology. The bracelets will be given to each visitor and allow them to enjoy using virtual lines, so they can play in the park while they are in a virtual line for many of the slides and attractions. The TapuTapu bracelet will also allow visitors to interact with the park around them, including activating water geysers on unsuspecting guests and revealing hidden paintings in the caves under the volcano.
