Dec 29, 2008 (M2 EQUITYBITES via COMTEX) -- VIVEF | Quote | Chart | News | PowerRating -- Universal Studios Hollywood, a unit of Universal Parks & Resorts, a division of Universal Studios, a part of NBC Universal, which is 80% owned by General Electric (NYSE:GE) and 20% controlled by Vivendi (Stuttgart: VVU.SG) declared on 26 December the launch of the 2009 All Access Pass, a new concept for theme park annual passes. The pass, priced at USD72.00, will be available for purchase beginning 29 December 2008 at www.UniversalStudiosHollywood.com and at the theme park ticket booths and will be sold from January to April 2009.

Universal Studios Hollywood said it will welcome repeat visitors, providing an 'unprecedented' array of perks, privileges and discounts for just USD5.00 more than the price of a single-day admission.

The 2009 All Access Pass will reportedly offer unrestricted 365-day 'no black-out date' park access, a dedicated VIP 'hassle-free' express front gate entrance, Backlot Studio Tour priority boarding privileges for most of the year and an array of discounts on all food and merchandise purchases at the theme park and USD12 off the purchase of guest tickets. The guests will also receive a rain check ticket valid for use any time in the following 30 days on a day that the park receives over 1/8" of rainfall by 2:00 p.m. plus complimentary coffee and hot chocolate at designated covered and indoor rest areas.

Universal Studios Hollywood will also debut the new "Creature from the Black Lagoon: The Musical" and a revitalised Studio Tour in 2009 showcasing new film sets and the arrival of Conan O'Brien and the new Tonight Show sound stage.

Universal Studios Hollywood is now open 365 days of the year and for the first time ever will remain open on Thanksgiving and Christmas day.
