Photos: Universal Orlando’s Mardi Gras Tribute Store Celebrates the Legends of the Bayou

This year's store, amidst all the impressive detail, includes a knock at Disney's Animal Kingdom.

This year’s Mardi Gras Tribute Store at Universal Studios Florida dives into the “Legends of the Bayou” with its new theme.

Remade and redesigned every year, this year’s edition highlights mythical creatures known for frequenting the swamps of the southern United States.

Of course, alongside the abundance of decorations and themed rooms, guests can also purchase merchandise celebrating the 30th anniversary of Mardi Gras at Universal Orlando.

A special “exhibit” within the store includes viewable dioramas of popular mythical creatures.

(One may even include a reference to Animal Kingdom’s infamous “Disco Yeti”.)

The store will be open in the Hollywood area of Universal Studios Florida throughout the entire Mardi Gras festivities, from February 1st through March 31st.
