Universal is hitting the road this spring with an interactive experience to ramp up excitement for its new Orlando theme park, Epic Universe, opening May 22. The National Epic Universe Portal Tour will stop in Atlanta, New York, Philadelphia and Chicago.

At each stop, the tour's centerpiece will be a replica of Epic's icon, a Chronos. At Epic Universe, a Chronos will act as the portal entry into its five themed worlds.

During the national tour, the 30-foot-tall Chronos will enable passersby "to witness action-packed sequences that celebrate the incredible adventures of the new theme park," Universal said. 

Guests can snap a photo with the portal and are especially encouraged to visit at night for a show featuring lighting and music.

Visitors can also enter a sweepstakes to win a trip to Universal Orlando Resort.

The tour's first stop will be at Atlanta's Pemberton Place, adjacent to the World of Coca-Cola, from April 11-13. Then, it heads to New York's Rockefeller Center from April 23-26. It will stop at the Rocky Steps in Philadelphia from May 16-18 and Chicago's Pioneer Court from June 13-18.

The display will be open from 11 a.m. to 8 p.m. at each stop.
