Lots of things have been changing or are set to change in Disneyland.

Downtown Disney

Soon, 6 different forms of entertainment will be returning to the parks, a special private party IN MICKEY’S HOUSE will become available, and Disney has announced a major Downtown Disney expansion set to take place in the future. Now, we’ve got an update about new shopping opportunities coming to Downtown Disney!

First up, it’s time for soccer fans to rejoice — the new Pelé Soccer store will be officially opening TODAY (December 15th) at Downtown Disney. We had seen the signage for this store previously…

The stadium-themed store features lots of soccer gear from “renowned global sports brands.” There are official club and national team jerseys, sports apparel, balls, and more. Want a customized gift? You can get that too! Jerseys can be customized with a name and number, giving you the opportunity to score a unique item or really great gift.

There’s a Pelé Soccer store in Disney Springs too, so you’ll be able to visit this spot on both coasts.

If you’re looking for more merchandise, you can stop by the already open Post 21 kiosk. This new spot is located on the east end of Downtown Disney.

Post 21 comes from a mother-daughter team that have “curated modern and design-forward merchandise from Black-owned businesses.” From Black Santa wrapping paper to children’s items, there’s a variety of things to pick from!
