Universal Studios Hollywood drops mask and vaccine requirements

Starting Friday, March 4, 2022, Universal Studios Hollywood will no longer require masks, proof of vaccination, or negative COVID-19 tests. Face coverings are still highly encouraged for guests while indoors.

A Universal Studios Hollywood spokesperson stated the following:

“Beginning on Friday, March 4, and in accordance with government guidelines, guests will no longer be required to wear facial coverings, or show proof of vaccination or a negative Covid-19 test when visiting Universal Studios Hollywood. Facial coverings continue to be strongly recommended while indoors. More information will be available at www.UniversalStudiosHollywood.com.”
