'The selfless dedication and tireless resilience exhibited by the first responders in response to combatting the L.A. wildfires has been nothing short of extraordinary and we are very grateful to these unsung heroes for their courage during this difficult time,' Scott Strobl, executive vp and general manager, Universal Studios Hollywood, said in a statement on Friday.
'When these first responders are ready for a much needed break, we look forward to welcoming them to our theme park.' National Guard members, paramedics, emergency medical technicians and other first responders can secure the complimentary and discounted tickets in person at the Universal Studios theme park's 'First Responder Heroes Ticket' ticket booth at the front gate entrance on the same day of a visit.
No online redemption is available and first responders will need to show a valid government-issued photo ID and a valid employee ID card. The free ticket offer is not available to retired and volunteer first responders.
The LA wildfires started in in Pacific Palisades, before spreading to parts of Malibu and Santa Monica, and then further afield to the Altadena-Pasadena area and elsewhere. The city-wide blazes have destroyed thousands of homes and buildings, requiring around-the-clock efforts by fire fighters, police officers and other first responders.
