The best lanyards for Universal

If you’re heading to Universal Studios, you need a lanyard. Almost everyone at Universal Orlando will be wearing a lanyard.

It’s an excellent way to keep your pass handy, better than having to dig it out to ride the Hogwarts Express, etc. If you have an Express Pass, it’s a great way to keep that handy as well.

I also use mine to carry my ID and a credit card as well as my annual pass. Annual pass holders get discounts on food and souvenirs, so it’s nice to have it handy.

Do I need a rental car in Orlando?

I like to get around as needed while on vacation, so I like to rent a car. I recommend renting a car from Discount USA Car Rental.

Discount USA Car Rental offers the best rates available whether you’re flying into Orlando or Sanford.

I always fly into Sanford, which has more expensive rental cars than the Orlando Airport. With Discount USA Car Rental, I tend to save $10-15 per day on my rental cars.

Lanyards for Universal Studios

Universal sells plenty of fun lanyards, but you might want to pick up a few before you arrive. They are less expensive on Amazon, and there are more choices.

The cardholder that comes with Universal lanyards is also flimsy, so you should pick up a pack before arrival anyway.

I have a blog post about seven things to buy before visiting the Wizarding World of Harry Potter, and a lanyard is one of them! However, this post has more ideas and even some for you Muggles out there. 

If you want an in-depth guide on what to pack for Universal, I’ve got you covered! I also have a full Universal Orlando planning guide that features all the questions you might have about planning a Universal vacation. 

Wizarding World of Harry Potter Lanyards

The Wizarding World of Harry Potter is fantastic, but the lanyard selection is not. You can represent your house with two different options, one thinner and one styled more like a tie.

There is also an “Alumni” option, and a couple of others but overall not very many. options. It’s hard to be unique when there are only a handful of options. Here are more Wizarding World lanyard options. 

“I solemnly swear.” 

“Letter from Hogwarts”

“Dobby is a free elf.”

“Hedwig carrying a letter from Hogwarts.”

“Hogwarts Express”

“Slytherin with charm and sticker.”

“Deathly Hallows”

“Mischief Managed”

“Hogwarts Houses”

“Ravenclaw Crest Plaid”

“Gryffindor Pride”

“Deluxe Hufflepuff Lanyard”

Check out dozens more Harry Potter lanyards on Amazon.

Planning a Universal Vacation

Are you planning a Universal Orlando vacation? I hope this guide to the best lanyards for Universal was helpful. If you have any other questions, feel free to ask them in the comments below.

Although I’m a certified Universal Travel Advisor, I only book a few Universal trips as my main focus as a Travel Advisor is honeymoons. 

You can always contact me for availability. I also send out a weekly email with all the theme park updates, so make sure to sign up below to get the latest. 

If you plan to DIY your vacation, I highly recommend buying your tickets through Undercover Tourist.

There are a lot of really scammy sites out there, so make sure you’re booking through an approved partner (like Undercover Tourist.)

I also highly recommend staying online at Universal Orlando. Universal Orlando is now home to eight resorts; Hard Rock Hotel, Loews Portofino Bay, Loews Sapphire Falls Resort, Loews Royal Pacific, Aventura Hotel, Cabana Bay Beach Resort, and Universal Endless Summer Resorts – Dockside Inn and Suites and Seaside Inn and Suites.
