OSAKA / UNIVERSAL STUDIOS JAPAN
Universal Studios Japan historical crowd calendar
Explore recorded USJ waits by date and attraction, and compare historical crowd scores since 2016.
Explore recorded waits by date. Overall scores and individual ride records have different coverage.
October 2026
Scores are not minutes or visitor counts. “View waits” means ride records are available without an overall score.
Compare two dates
These are USJinfo scores based on waiting times. They are not minutes, attendance or a forecast. Color only represents the published score; an empty cell remains unknown.

How to compare two dates
Choose a month to see its daily scores. Below the calendar, enter two dates to compare their values. A higher score is higher on USJinfo’s scale; it is not a visitor count.
Are the scores queue times in minutes?
No. They are daily USJinfo scores based on waiting times. They cannot be converted directly into minutes or treated as the wait for a particular ride.
What does a day with no data mean?
We do not have a historical score for that day. We do not replace it with zero: it does not mean the park was closed or empty.
What is the best day to visit?
This calendar lets you compare the past, but cannot guarantee what your visit will be like. Avoid treating one day as a rule for every year. Check official hours and events when choosing a future date.
How far back does the calendar go?
Overall scores cover July 2016 through September 2026. Recent dates with recorded ride waits are also shown, even without an overall score. Forecasts have their own page.
I am already in the park. Where can I check queues?
Open the wait times page to check individual rides. This calendar summarizes past days and does not show what is happening now.

Waits by hour
How averages are calculated
Waits are weighted by duration, capped at 15 minutes. Hours need 30 covered minutes; averages need three covered hours; highlighting a window requires four comparable hours. Gaps and closures are not zero. This is not a forecast.
