And you know what can make it even better? Knocking out some holiday shopping while you’re here. From brand-new Spirit Jerseys to delightfully mischievous ornaments and even personalized memorabilia, the perfect holiday gift is right here at Universal Studios Hollywood, just waiting for you to find it. 

But enough yapping, let’s get to it! Here’s our holiday gift guide for every Universal lover on your list. 

For the friends who swear there’s more room on that branch 

Personally, I prefer my Christmas tree absolutely jam-packed with ornaments. And if you’re anything like me, you’ll definitely want to add to the fun with Universal holiday decor. This year, the Holidays at Universal collection features a host of new ornaments, featuring your favorite Universal Studios Hollywood iconography. Want to don your tree with a very merry “Jurassic World” bulb? We’ve got you covered. A festive Hello Kitty? Yep, got that too. What about an ornament of the Grinch’s hand holding an ornament (featured above), in perhaps the most meta Christmas decor I’ve ever seen? If your heart lusts for a busy tree like mine does, head to Universal on the double!

For the friend who already has all the songs memorized

Rejoicify, for “Wicked” season is upon us once again! Whether you’re a munchkin or a witch or a wizard, you’re bound to find some absolutely ozmopolitan fashion around these parts. Check out this “Wicked: For Good” merch line, exclusive to Universal Parks, at Universal Studios Hollywood and CityWalk.

For the friend who thinks every movie is a Christmas movie 

This holiday season, Universal Studios Hollywood is going all in — and I mean all in — on Spirit Jerseys. We’re rolling out holiday versions of these long-sleeved tops based on a whole bunch of your favorite characters, shows and movies, so there’s a spirit jersey for everyone on your list. 

If you’ve got a loveable Christmas curmudgeon on your list, look no further than the Grinchmas Spirit Jersey. If their style leans more toward cozy Hogsmeade holiday charm, The Wizarding World of Harry Potter “Happy Christmas” Spirit Jersey is the perfect pick. Fans of the supercute will love a Hello Kitty Spirit Jersey, and your most mischievous friends will appreciate the Minions-themed one. And for classic Universal fans, get your hands on the “Back to the Future” and “Jaws” themed tops. ‘Cause who said great white sharks can’t celebrate the holidays, too? These, and more, await! 

For your friend who melts for all things adorable 

This year, Christmas in The Wizarding World of Harry Potter isn’t just magical — it’s adorable. Introducing: the new Interactive Pygmy Puff! These cute companions can rest on your wrist or shoulder, making for a delightful friend to explore the wizarding world with. They’re perfect for every witch and wizard of all ages who adore magical creatures, and are available at Filch’s Emporium in The Wizarding World of Harry Potter and at the Universal Studio Store.

For the friends who get ultra-competitive (in the best way)

One of my favorite holiday pastimes is playing games with my family — and that’s exactly what SUPER NINTENDO WORLD is all about. And with a Power-Up Band for everyone, you and your family can compete over a variety of interactive games in SUPER NINTENDO WORLD and battle to beat Team Bowser on Mario Kart: Bowser’s Challenge. Use your Power-Up Band to collect digital coins, digital stamps (including a seasonal, holiday-themed stamp!), follow the leaderboards, and unlock Bowser Jr. Shadow Showdown. 

Pick a Power-Up Band for each of your family members’ favorite Mushroom Kingdom character. Maybe you’ve got one of each character in your family, or maybe you’ve got a whole family of Toads on your hands. Either way, you’re about to have a whole lot of SUPER NINTENDO WORLD fun.

For your friend who’s always checking the scores

If you’ve got sports fans on your gift list — and c’mon, who doesn’t? — then beeline for Universal CityWalk Hollywood. The entertainment district has a whole host of can’t-miss shops dedicated to professional sports. Between the only NBA Store on the West Coast to the Dodgers Clubhouse to Lids, you’re bound to find the jerseys, hats and memorabilia of your favorite sports-lover’s favorite team. And while you’re at it, take them out to lunch at the NBC Sports Grill & Brew. 

For your friend who loves seeing their name in lights

You know that feeling when you open a present and know it was picked out just for you? You can give that feeling to everyone on your list with personalized merch at Universal Studios Hollywood. Hogwarts house robes in The Wizarding World of Harry Potter? Personalize them. Power-Up Bands in SUPER NINTENDO WORLD? Personalize them. There are countless opportunities park-wide to get that special someone’s name engraved on their gift. For more info, just ask a team member wherever you’re shopping. 

For your friend who’s always suggesting another Universal day 

What’s better than a trip to Universal Studios Hollywood? Another trip to Universal Studios Hollywood. And then another one. And then — you get the point! Being a Universal Pass Member has so many fantastic perks, but my favorite is the freedom to pop in and out of the theme park at my leisure. With an annual (or season) pass, there’s no pressure to pack everything into one day — just swing into the theme park to try a new snack, ride a couple rides, or get some shopping in. The specific 2026 Pass Member offerings haven’t been announced yet, but you can count on exclusive events, collectible giveaways and themed offerings.

Where to Shop 

OK, so you’re ready to shop, Universal-style — but where do you go?

Universal Studios Hollywood:This is by far the best place to get your shopping in. Holiday merch is available all over the theme park, including stores like the Universal Studio Store, the Feature Presentation Store and the Animation Studio Store, all of which are in the Hollywood section of the Upper Lot, right where you enter the theme park. There are also lots of great shops in The Wizarding World of Harry Potter — which, in my opinion, all pair very well with a hot butterbeer. 

Universal CityWalk Hollywood: The holidays can get busy — if you don’t have the time to spend a day at the theme park, swing by CityWalk! The Universal Studio Store, Production Central, Cartooniversal and Universal Bazar are great places to tick people off your holiday list. But really, the whole strip is packed with stores full of items that’ll look great wrapped up in a bow. 

ShopUniversal.com: Can’t make it to LA to shop IRL? We’ve got you covered: just click on over to ShopUniversal.com. You’ll find something for every Universal fan on your list — and something for yourself, while you’re at it.
