I’ve raved about many places to visit, and things to do on my blog. It’s hard not to. In my opinion Southern California is the greatest place on earth. What I’m going to tell you about takes the cake. I discovered one of most fabulous experiences that Southern California has to offer. A theme park visit without long lines or a wait. Our family had the opportunity to visit Universal Studios Hollywood and we tried out the Front of the Line Passes.

What is a Front of The Line Pass you might ask? In my opinion it has to be the most fantastic thing offered by a theme park EVER!! Basically here’s how it works. You don’t wait in line. You just get on the ride or get the best seat in the house to all of Universal Studios’ attractions and shows. I know it sounds too good to be true but it’s not. I almost couldn’t believe it myself until I experienced it for myself. We didn’t have to wait in line for any ride, yes even the new Simpsons ride. It was amazing. While everyone else waited in line for an hour and a half. We were able to walk right on the Simpsons ride(which by the way has to be one of best rides ever!!), without a wait . We also just walked up to the tram for the Studio Back lot tour. No waiting!!! I was in theme park heaven.

Here’s the nitty gritty on the Front Of The Line Pass. Every attraction has a general admission line and a gate A entrance. Universal sells a limited number of Front of the Line passes, which guarantees that no matter how long the wait for a given ride, Gate A will never have more than a couple of people waiting to get on the ride. The Front Of the Line Pass is in a class all its own. It will get you on any ride, any show, any time you want. Another fabulous perk of the Front of The Line Pass is that you get a behind the scenes at all of shows.

It’s a little more than regular admission but it’s so worth it. Trust me on this!! You will especially appreciate it on a hot summer day. While others are waiting miserably in the hot sun for maybe hours at a time, you will be able to skip right past then and enjoy your ride without a wait. That my friends is priceless. There are only a limited number of passes available each day. Make sure to get to the park early or better yet, buy your passes online and skip one other line!!

On a side note, we were lucky enough to experience King Kong on what turned out to be his last day due to the unfortunate fire. He will be missed.
