Beloved toy retailer brings childhood nostalgia, family favorites and year-round toy shopping to Central Florida.

The Magic is Back! Toys“R”Us is Now Open at Oviedo Mall!

There's a certain kind of magic that comes with walking into a toy store. The endless possibilities, the excitement of discovering something new, and the feeling that anything could happen.


For generations of children, that feeling had a name: Toys“R”Us. Now, that magic is officially back at Oviedo Mall. And this time, Geoffrey is here to stay. Oviedo Mall, yes Toys“R”Us is officially open at the mall, welcoming shoppers to its new, approximately 5,200-square-foot location in the mall's west wing. Arriving just in time for the holiday shopping season, the beloved toy retailer isn't simply opening a temporary holiday pop-up.


The new store will operate year-round, giving Central Florida families a place to discover, explore and shop for toys long after the holiday decorations come down.


Operated by Go! Retail Group, the new Toys“R”Us location features a curated assortment of popular toys and beloved brands, including LEGO, Barbie, Hot Wheels, NERF, PAW Patrol and more. From action figures and games to puzzles, arts and crafts, and the latest must-have toys, the store offers something for kids of all ages.


"For so many of us, Toys“R”Us wasn't just somewhere you went shopping. It was somewhere you went to dream," said Josh Gunderson, Marketing & Events Director at Oviedo Mall. "You could walk through those doors with absolutely no idea what you wanted and leave with a Christmas list a mile long. There's something incredibly special about getting to bring that feeling back, not just for those of us who grew up with Geoffrey, but for an entirely new generation of kids who get to make those memories of their own."


The opening marks another exciting chapter in Oviedo Mall's continued evolution as a destination for shopping, entertainment and community connection.


Over the past several years, Oviedo Mall has worked to reimagine what a shopping mall can be, embracing unique businesses, interactive experiences and an extensive calendar of community events that encourage visitors to do more than simply shop.

"We've worked really hard to bring back that feeling of wanting to hang out at the mall," Gunderson continued. "Whether you're here for a book fair, a community festival, a movie, or just to spend an afternoon with friends, we want this to be somewhere people come to make memories. Toys“R”Us fits perfectly into that vision. It's a familiar name that brings people together, sparks conversations and reminds us why these shared experiences matter."


The arrival of Toys“R”Us also speaks to the enduring appeal of in-person experiences in an increasinglydigital world. While online shopping offers convenience, the excitement of exploring a toy store, discovering something unexpected and sharing that experience with family and friends remains difficult to replicate.



"There's nothing wrong with ordering something online, but a cardboard box showing up on your doorstep doesn't quite compare to the excitement of walking into a toy store," Gunderson added. "Especially during the holidays, there's something wonderful about seeing kids light up when they discover something they love. And let's be real, plenty of us adults are going to be just as excited."


With the holiday season approaching, the new Toys“R”Us store adds another reason for Central Florida families to visit Oviedo Mall, whether they're checking names off their shopping lists, rediscovering a childhood favorite or introducing a new generation to the magic of Geoffrey and his world of toys. And with the store remaining open throughout the year, that excitement doesn't have to end when the holidays do.


And while the doors are officially open, the fun is only getting started. Oviedo Mall encourages shoppers to stay tuned for more exciting announcements in the coming weeks.
