Playland: A Dream-O-Vision Experience

Shrek 4-D is a 4D simulator ride attraction with water and motion-based effects that synchronize with an animated 4D film based on the Shrek franchise. The attraction is located at Universal Studios Japan and Universal Studios Singapore, and it previously existed at Universal Studios Hollywood and Universal Studios Florida. The Hollywood location closed on August 14, 2017, to make way for the DreamWorks Theatre attraction. The Orlando location closed on January 10, 2022, and was replaced by Illumination's Villain-Con Minion Blast. Outside the Universal parks, the film was shown at Movie Park Germany in Germany from May 2008 until July 2011, and at Warner Bros. Movie World in Australia from September 2005 until August 2010. A spin-off attraction titled Donkey's Photo Finish is located at the Florida venue while Meet Shrek and Donkey is located at the Hollywood venue. In Universal Studios Japan (where it is known as Shrek's 4-D Adventure), the attraction is shown in the same theater as Sesame Street 4-D Movie Magic, with the Shrek 4-D film shown for the first 12 hours of the day, and the Sesame Street film shown for the next 12 hours of the day. The film, which is set between the events of the Shrek and Shrek 2, follows Shrek and Donkey as they attempt to save Princess Fiona from Lord Farquaad's ghost, who plots to capture her. Guests embark on a journey alongside Shrek and Donkey during their rescue mission. It has also been titled Shrek 3-D for the DVD release and The Ghost of Lord Farquaad for other media releases.
