Take a Look Inside the Hello Kitty Friends Around the World Tour

It’s 2019… and that means it’s time to celebrate 45 years of Hello Kitty! To celebrate our favorite kitty’s 45th anniversary, Sanrio put together something extra special: the Friends Around the World Tour located in Los Angeles, CA.

This incredible immersive experience is a 10,000-square-foot pop-up that invites all of Hello Kittys friends to join her on a whirlwind tour of some of her favorite destinations—dive into Hello Kitty’s supercuts world and explore Tokyo, Honolulu, New York, Paris, and London with her!

In addition to the main attraction (the tour!), there are of course other fun attractions to check out. The Hello Kitty Air Sky Lounge is just across from the main tour pop-up, and in the Sky Lounge you can preview the new OPI x Hello Kitty Holiday Collection (and maybe even get a manicure if you play your cards right!), enjoy sweet Hello Kitty-themed treats, and check out exclusive merchandise. For more information and to buy tickets to the experience, click here!

If you won't get a chance to visit this pop-up in person, don’t worry! We’ve put together some of our favorite photos from Instagrammers who have been lucky enough to visit the Friends Around the World Tour in person!


Make sure you get your boarding pass first!
