The story of Stardust Racers
Stardust Racers first appeared in concept art connected with the reveal of Universal Epic Universe. The proposal called for a racing coaster to stand among the gardens and waterways of Celestial Park. coasterpedia.net· media.universalparksusa.com
Mack Rides was chosen to build the steel launch coaster in collaboration with Universal Creative. The finished design places two racing courses side by side, allowing the trains to cross and meet at carefully arranged points along the journey. coasterpedia.net· amusementtoday.com
The attraction opened with Universal Epic Universe on May 22, 2025, forming the principal roller coaster in Celestial Park and giving the new Orlando park a substantial steel landmark from its first day. media.universalparksusa.com· coasterpedia.net
