The highly-anticipated Universal Fan Fest Nights is just days away from its grand debut at Universal Studios Hollywood, and we finally have a look at the fandom-fueled menu and merchandise hitting the park.
Running on select nights from April 23 through May 16, 2026, this new after-hours event is leaning heavily into its diverse IP lineup, offering everything from 22-inch hot dogs to "Dragon Egg" cheesecakes.
If you're planning your visit, here is the breakdown of what you’ll be eating and buying at the event.
A Taste of the Fandoms
Executive Chef Julia Thrash has curated a menu that spans the multiverse. Here are the highlights from each themed zone:
- ONE PIECE: Taking over Hollywood & Dine, "Sanji’s Galley" returns with an expanded menu featuring Luffy’s Meat on the Bone, Franky’s Loco Moco Burger, and a Pirate’s Bounty Funnel Cake. New for 2026, the Grand Pirate Den will serve themed mocktails.
- Dungeons & Dragons: The Lower Lot hosts the First Roll Tavern, serving up Cockatrice Hot Wings, Beholder’s Brew Fondue, and a wobbling Gelatinous Cube dessert.
- Pretty Guardian Sailor Moon: Fans can grab a special bento box (complete with spicy tuna onigiri), a Moon Scepter Churro, or Tuxedo Mask’s Raspberry Rose Sandwich Cookie.
- Scooby-Doo Meets The Universal Monsters: In Little Europe, look for the massive Super Shaggy Sandwich (designed for sharing) and a monstrous 22” Hot Dog.
- The Wizarding World of Harry Potter: The Three Broomsticks is leaning into British classics like Toad in the Hole, Scotch Eggs, and a new Hippogriff Brown Sugar & Oat Trifle.
- SUPER NINTENDO WORLD: Chef Toad has whipped up three new Yoshi-themed smoothies (Green, Yellow, and Purple) and a collectible Yoshi Egg drink bottle.
