Check out a preview of the shark-infested celebration.

What’s Happening:

- Taking over the park’s San Francisco area, Amity has come to life at the theme park.
- Fun theming elements have taken over the area, including several photo opportunities where fans of the iconic Steven Spielberg film can immerse themselves into some shark-infested fun.

- While not quite open, a food stand called Captain Quint’s Boardwalk Snacks has appeared in the land.
- Many fans who grew up going to Universal will remember the Jaws boat ride that used to thrill guests.
- Closing in 2012 to make way for The Wizarding World of Harry Potter: Diagon Alley, Jaws still has a large following of fans who desperately miss the attraction.
