🎢 Rides, Stages & After-Dark Energy

Rock the Universe is built into the park itself, which means you’re not stuck in one place all night.

🎡 Attractions Open During the Event Many fan-favorite rides remain open, letting you break up concerts with thrill rides, coasters, and immersive attractions all glowing under nighttime lighting.

🎤 Multiple Performance Stages The main concert stage anchors the event, but additional stages and performance zones are scattered throughout the park. You’ll constantly stumble into live music, spontaneous praise moments, and smaller sets as you move from land to land.

The result is a festival that feels alive everywhere you go.
