In the video, the Ride Guys, clad in construction gear, are joined by JC, the Executive Producer for Ride and Show, who introduces Stardust Racers as his “baby” within Celestial Park, a new area within Epic Universe. The video provides context behind the coasters the imaginative backstory: the citizens of Celestial Park, affectionately known as Celestians, have discovered a way to harness the energy of comets, allowing them to race across the night sky. Guests of Celestial Park can now cash in on this tech and enjoy the Celestians beloved pastime firsthand!

As a racing coaster, Stardust Racers will feature two ride vehicles competing against each other. But what makes this experience truly special is the Celestial Spin: as the vehicles exit the second launch, one vehicle will invert over the other, creating a mind-bending moment where guests in one vehicle are looking up while those in the other are looking down—only to swap positions in a matter of milliseconds.

The sneak peak also teases the park’s groundbreaking nighttime lighting. Unlike anything Universal has done before, Celestial Park will be bathed in millions of pixels of light, creating an otherworldly atmosphere. Stardust Racers itself will take this to the next level by forgoing exterior track lighting, instead illuminating the ride vehicles so that they streak through the sky like glowing comets, visible from all around the park.
