To make a long story short[er]: We've booked a 3-day Universal vacation, staying onsite, arriving 4/28/18, with Seasonal Annual Passes.
I just found out that a "Grad Bash" has been scheduled for 4/28, with a concert to be announced.
Our Seasonal Annual Passes have us blocked out from USF on "all concert dates."
Does anybody know if a Grad Bash "concert" means we'll be barred from USF for the entire day, or is a "Grad Bash" concert not a real concert for AP blackout purposes? Are there enough Seasonal AP holders that if we're restricted to IOA for the day, we should expect a big bump in the crowds there? Also, how early have the parks typically been closed to the public on Grad Bash nights?
Any insights would be appreciated! I've contacted Universal via e-mail, but haven't heard back, and I'm getting a little anxious. Between limited park access and limited park hours, I'd hate to think we've already "wasted" a day of our vacation before we even arrive!
