Universal Studios Hollywood is showing its gratitude to the first responders who made such an impact during the recent wildfires in the Los Angeles area. They are doing so by offering free tickets to qualifying first responders. On top of that, they are offering 50 percent discounts on up to three tickets for any guests who are accompanying them. The offer is available until April 10, 2025.
“The selfless dedication and tireless resilience exhibited by the first responders in response to combatting the L.A. wildfires has been nothing short of extraordinary and we are very grateful to these unsung heroes for their courage during this difficult time,” Scott Strobl, executive vp and general manager, Universal Studios Hollywood, said in a statement on Friday.
“When these first responders are ready for a much needed break, we look forward to welcoming them to our theme park.” National Guard members, paramedics, emergency medical technicians and other first responders can secure the complimentary and discounted tickets in person at the Universal Studios theme park’s “First Responder Heroes Ticket” ticket booth at the front gate entrance on the same day of a visit.
The discount is not available online and must be redeemed in person. First responders will need to show a valid government-issued photo ID along with a valid employee ID card. The free ticket offer is not available for retired or volunteer first responders.
The Los Angeles wildfires began with a fire in the Pacific Palisades. This fire was quickly joined by another one in Altadena. Both proved to be catastrophic and reached 100% containment just today. The fires destroyed thousands of homes and buildings and will take years to recover from.
