On this day, June 21, 1996, Jurassic Park: The Ride officially opened at Universal Studios Hollywood. Based on Steven Spielberg’s blockbuster film, the attraction transported guests to Isla Nublar aboard tour boats for a close encounter with living dinosaurs. What began as a peaceful journey quickly turned into a fight for survival as riders found themselves face-to-face with Velociraptors and a towering Tyrannosaurus Rex before plunging 84 feet to escape. For more than two decades, Jurassic Park: The Ride became one of the most beloved attractions in the park’s history and helped define the Universal Studios Hollywood experience for an entire generation of guests.
