Can you take fanny pack on rides at Universal?

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.



At Universal Orlando Resort in 2026, fanny packs are allowed on most attractions, provided they feature a three-prong buckle and are worn around the waist rather than as a "crossbody" sling. However, there are absolute exceptions for "high-intensity" rides that utilize metal detectors. You are strictly prohibited from wearing or carrying a fanny pack (or anything else in your pockets) on The Incredible Hulk Coaster, Jurassic World VelociCoaster, and Hollywood Rip Ride Rockit. For these three rides, you must place all items in the provided lockers, which are free for the duration of your ride. On other major attractions like Hagrid’s Magical Creatures Motorbike Adventure or Harry Potter and the Forbidden Journey, a slim fanny pack is generally permitted as long as it does not interfere with the safety restraints. To ensure a smooth boarding process, always be prepared to shift the pack to the side of your hip so the lap bar or overhead harness can click securely into place without obstruction.
