Mardi Gras Tribute Store: A Journey Through the Bayou and the Big Easy
The store is divided into several elaborately themed rooms that tell a visual story as you shop. You’ll start by feeling the neon glow of Baron Tonton’s Roadhouse, a space that feels like a hidden gem tucked away in the marshlands.
From there, you’ll wander through the winding pathways of the New Orleans boroughs, where the atmosphere shifts to mimic the historic, slightly mysterious side of the city. Finally, you’ll emerge into the colorful and vibrant energy of the French Quarter, complete with the festive decor and lively spirit the area is famous for.
Bigger, Brighter, and Bolder Merchandise
As guests make their way through the retail space, they can shop this year’s expansive collection of merchandise, which, according to Universal, is bigger, brighter, and bolder than ever before. Universal has leaned heavily into the neon aesthetic and the Baron Tonton legend for this year’s lineup.
Signature items for 2026 include:
- Baron Tonton Collection: Featuring a must-have shoulder pal, themed headbands, and stylish apparel.
- Neon-Infused Gear: Items specifically designed to celebrate the lively, glowing streets of the roadhouse theme.
