The FIFA World Cup in Los Angeles is about to get a whole lot cuter. Fresh off the launch of its new Jellycat Football Club 2026 collection, the beloved plush toy brand is bringing a series of interactive pop-up experiences to Southern California.
It’s giving fans the chance to meet some of its newest sports-inspired characters in person.
As part of a nationwide tour celebrating the debut of the Amuseables™ Sports collection, Jellycat will make two highly anticipated stops in Los Angeles County this June. The pop-ups are complete with themed installations, exclusive merchandise, and plenty of photo-worthy moments.
First stop: The Grove in Los Angeles
On Wednesday, June 3, Jellycat Football Club will take over The Grove from 10 a.m. to 8 p.m., transforming one of L.A.’s most iconic shopping destinations into a playful celebration of the beautiful game.
Fans can expect appearances from the collection’s charming cast of characters, like Fowla Red Card and Warni Yellow Card.
The event promises a festive atmosphere filled with soccer spirit and exclusive branded goodies for collectors and longtime Jellycat enthusiasts.
You can purchase the actual collection at Nordstrom at The Grove.
Then it’s off to Venice
The following day, on Thursday, June 4, the Jellycat Football Club heads west to Abbot Kinney Boulevard in Venice for a one-day-only appearance from 12 p.m. to 6 p.m.
Known for its eclectic boutiques, artistic energy, and walkable charm, Abbot Kinney provides the perfect backdrop for Jellycat’s whimsical world. Visitors can join the fun, snap photos with the lovable characters, and browse exclusive branded goodies tied to the tour.
Whether you’re a dedicated collector or simply looking for a family-friendly outing, the Venice stop offers a unique chance to experience Jellycat’s newest collection before it arrives online later this summer.
