This store will celebrate some of the studio's most beloved brands, including Jaws, Ghostbusters, E.T., and Back to the Future. For more details, visit universalorlando.com.

According to a press release, starting May 24th, guests at Universal Orlando Resort can revisit their favorite memories from Ghostbusters, Back to the Future, E.T. The Extra Terrestrial, Jaws, and Shrek at the new Summer Tribute Store. This limited-time store, inspired by the iconic movies featured in the new summer experiences at Universal Orlando, offers a 1980s-themed retail space filled with special props, photo ops, merchandise, and more.

Located in the Hollywood area of Universal Studios Florida, this year's Summer Tribute Store will transport guests to 'The Tribute Store Plaza'—a 1980s shopping mall featuring three immersive rooms: the nostalgic Mega Video Rental store, the retro Mega Castle Arcade, and the majestic Tribute Theatre. As guests explore, they will find various photo opportunities and countless Easter eggs inspired by beloved characters and moments from the films.

The new Tribute Store will offer a variety of collections, including apparel, accessories, home goods, and more themed to the films. Highlights include a colorful new Shrek assortment, an E.T. outdoors-inspired line, Ghostbusters-themed goods, Jaws nautical merchandise, and much more. Later this summer, the store will also feature all-new interactive bubble wands inspired by DreamWorks Animation's Trolls, Illumination's Minions, and Universal Pictures and Amblin Entertainment's Jurassic World. These wands will include fun features allowing them to interact with each other and with specific floats in the Universal Mega Movie Parade debuting on July 3rd.
