Universal Orlando: 2025 Winter Holiday Tribute Store

🎢 Universal Orlando’s 2025 Holiday Tribute Store in Universal Studios Florida:
What to Expect
The 2025 Holiday Tribute Store is a fully immersive, multi-room experience located in the Hollywood section of Universal Studios Florida. This year’s theme is a whimsical journey through “Mistletoe Valley,” anchored by hundreds of nutcrackers and the beloved park mascots, Earl the Squirrel and Gerg the Llama. The store is divided into several themed rooms, each packed with festive décor, exclusive merchandise, and playful holiday references.
• Exterior & Entrance: The adventure begins outside with Earl’s RV, decked out in bumper stickers, blow-mold decorations, and inside jokes referencing past Tribute Stores and Universal lore. The entrance resembles a cozy winter lodge, setting the tone for the holiday magic inside.
• Immersive Rooms: As you move through the store, you’ll pass through a workshop filled with half-built nutcrackers and toy blueprints, a glowing mountain pass with faux snow and Northern Lights projections, a bustling Town Center with Grinchmas, Minions, and Hello Kitty displays, and finally, Earl & Gerg’s Nutcracker Lodge—a room bursting with nutcrackers of every shape and size.
