Universal Studios Officially Opens New Hello Kitty Shop

While this new shop unofficially opened to Guests a few weeks ago at Universal Studios Florida, the park recently held a grand opening for the Hello Kitty Shop that replaced the former exhibit celebrating the life and career of Lucille Ball.
The new retail experience, located along Hollywood Boulevard, features an array of specialty merchandise (including items that can be found exclusively at the Universal Orlando Resort) and the opportunity to meet Hello Kitty herself.

As soon as guests walk under the shop’s rainbow gateway, they’ll be instantly transported into the colorful world of Hello Kitty. The store is divided into four different, unique sections:

Hello Kitty Town, where guests can walk through Hello Kitty’s community and find products from some of her famous friends
Hello Kitty Sweet Yummy Shop, a section full of Hello Kitty merchandise and sweet treats including Keroppi S’more Fudge, Hello Kitty Chocolate Cupcakes topped with a candy bow and Strawberry Rainbow Fudge
Hello Kitty Lounge, an area where guests can pick up their favorite lounging merchandise like fuzzy robes, colorful slippers and an assortment of Hello Kitty plush
Hello Kitty at the Movies, showcasing Hello Kitty with a classic movie theatre backdrop
