Soft opening next Spring!
BEIJING, Aug. 12 (Xinhua) -- The Universal Studios Beijing theme park will open its doors for trial operations in the spring of 2021, local authorities said Wednesday. The announcement confirms that the park is still on course for its scheduled 2021 opening date, as revealed by the Universal Beijing Resort in October 2019.Source: http://www.xinhuanet.com/english/2020-08/12/c_139285815.htmConstruction work is underway to improve the flow of traffic to the park, including traffic interchanges, allowing visitors to arrive at the parking lot via the highway and Beijing's Sixth Ring Road.

I have too much to post again so another construction update showing Kung Fu Panda, Jurassic World Isla Nublar, Minion Land and more will be posted very soon so keep checking back.
Recently Universal Beijing has been approved to have fireworks set off from three locations at the park: Wizarding World of Harry Potter, WaterWorld and at the “Lagoon Night Fireworks Show”
I did see in the past week or two on Douyin fireworks being set off at Universal Beijing. I assumed it was for testing and based on the timing of this I believe that to be the case.
So there’s going to be a nighttime lagoon show at the park but what about a parade? The good news is that a parade is indeed planned as well. Auditions for the park list parade performers as one of the current roles. In addition, here’s a photo posted in November 2018 showing a document from June 2017 of a parade route:

Those who visit Universal Orlando Resort may recognize this pedestrian bridge between parking and CityWalk. When arriving instead of seeing mini golf on the right side you'll see the foliage-covered roof of the transit station.
