Disney Opens Second ‘Disney Store Limited Time’ Pop‑Up at Paramus Mall

The seasonal, Go! Retail Group‑run pop‑up will collect sales and foot‑traffic data to help decide whether Disney returns to permanent standalone stores.

Overview

  • The Paramus location at Westfield Garden State Plaza held a grand opening on Thursday, September 3, 2026, with doors opening at 4:00 p.m.
  • The pop‑up occupies roughly 2,300 square feet on the mall’s first level and features themed zones for princesses, Pixar, Marvel and Star Wars plus location‑exclusive merchandise.
  • This store will remain open through the 2026 holiday season with set hours and is operated day‑to‑day by Go! Retail Group under a collaboration with The Walt Disney Company.
  • Disney says the Limited Time program is a way to reconnect with fans and gather real‑world customer behavior that can guide future real‑estate choices rather than commit to long leases now.
  • The effort builds on a successful May prototype at Ross Park Mall in Pittsburgh and taps into fan nostalgia for in‑person retail, which could prompt a wider rollout if sales and attendance stay strong.
