Universal Studios Hollywood is creating a buzz with a new billboard inspired by the iconic 1985 Back to the Future poster on Sunset Boulevard. The billboard features a fan dressed as Marty McFly checking his watch and wearing the classic red vest, signaling the countdown to Universal Fan Fest Nights beginning on April 25.

This inaugural after-hours fandom event brings Back to the Future: Destination Hill Valley into the spotlight, letting guests experience an immersive journey to 1955 Hill Valley. Visitors will board the “Fan Tram” to the historic Courthouse Square backlot, once used in the film, and relive classic scenes, including the Enchantment Under the Sea dance and a dramatic recreation of the Clock Tower lightning strike.

Universal Fan Fest Nights runs on select dates from April 25 to May 18, 2025, and features other major fandoms, including Star Trek, DUNGEONS & DRAGONS, ONE PIECE, Jujutsu Kaisen, and Wicked meet-and-greet opportunities. The Wizarding World of Harry Potter™ and SUPER NINTENDO WORLD™ will also offer special additions. Themed foods, new merchandise, and cosplay options enhance this immersive celebration of all things pop culture.
