Not sure if you should wear a fanny pack or backpack at Universal Orlando?  Here’s 5 Reasons why you should wear a Fanny Pack the next time you're visiting Universal Orlando Resort.

1. You'll Skip the Lockers

  • Most of  Universal Orlando's rides allow you to wear a fanny pack.
    • The Incredible Hulk, Hollywood Rip Ride Rockit & Velocicoaster are the only attractions that require ALL items including cellphones be put into a locker.
  • By wearing a fanny pack, you’ll get in so many additional rides by by not having to deal with the crowded locker areas.

2.No Back Pain

  • Ditch lugging the heavy backpack if you can. 
  • You’ll navigate through the park faster with less weight. Especially helpful on hot days. 
  • Your feet will also thank you!

3. You’ll Only Pack What You Really Need

  • You'll zoom through security in CityWalk.
  • No digging around for the chapstick or charging cord.
  • Your hands will be free.

4. You👏 Won’t 👏 Have👏 to 👏 Carry 👏 Other 👏 People 👏Stuff

  • In a group? everyone can wear *their own* fanny pack. It’ll make sure that everyone is only taking absolute essentials.

  • Each person can pack their own snacks & reusable water bottle too.
  • You won’t be asked to carry other people’s items because you won’t have the space to store them.

5. You’re Less Likely to Sit Down & Leave Things by Accident

  • Backpacks or drawstring bags can be left on the train, behind bathroom doors, inside lockers, under restaurant tables, or next to a bench when stopping for a break.
  • By wearing a fanny pack, it’s literally attached to you.
  • Carrying a wand? Consider using a wand holder that clips to your fanny pack. You can also wear/pack a high sock. I'll place my wand  inside the sock against my inner calf while riding non metal detector rides.

When Looking for a Reliable Fanny Pack

  • Water resistant material will be ideal for those random rain showers
  • To follow Universal Orlando rules: the fanny pack needs to have a 3 Pronged clip.
