For a limited time, check out the Stranger Things Pop-Up Store in Glendale, a store and interactive experience based off the wildly popular Netflix show starring a group of quirky kids and teenagers along with a desperate mother, a hardheaded cop, and incredibly ruthless Demogorgons.
Location
The pop-up store is located right square in the Americana at Brand, which in itself is a fantastic location to walk around the outdoor square and get some shopping in with some good food and drinks along the way. They even have a free trolley and visits by Santa.
The address of The Stranger Things Pop-Up Store is as follows:
The Americana at Brand
889 Americana Way, Glendale, CA 91210
The store itself
A big part of this is being able to buy some sweet Stranger Things merch! They have a lot of references to the show, and we have to warn you there maybe some very minor spoilers in the below photos. There isn’t anything foundationally spoiler-ish here, but consider yourself warned anyways.
Whether you’re a fan of Eleven, Mike, Dustin, or pretty much everyone, you’ll probably be able to find something good to buy.
Let’s be real: some of the best scenes of Season 3 were in Scoops Ahoy.
If you’re a massive Netflix fan, you too can rock this incredibly loud hoodie that screams “I am a massive Netflix fan.”
The Stranger Things experience
A big reason this pop-up is so cool is because it’s not strictly there to sell you stuff. You can go in and experience some very recognizable scenes from the show and have plenty of photo ops to take with you.
The whole place has the nice retro vibe that the show does so well.
It feels like you’re literally in Hawkins–except for all the super crazy and scary stuff that has you basically on the edge of death, that is.
Photo Ops
You’ll want to get some sweet photo ops here with some instantly recognizable locations. This was the site of one of our favorite scenes ever. Again, no major spoilers, but tread carefully anyways.
We know you watched the kids ride the bikes and wanted to do it yourself. Don’t feel bad, it’s natural.
And of course, arguably the best photo op of them all, the very very infamous scene by a certain very persistent character. If you haven’t seen Season 1 yet, don’t scroll down.
Tickets
Tickets are completely free! Don’t worry, they do indeed cost zero dollars. After all, friends don’t lie.
We recommend snagging them online to reduce any time waiting at the store, but you can also show up and sign up there on your phone by scanning a QR code.
