Universal Studios Hollywood Celebrates The One Year Anniversary Of SUPER NINTENDO WORLD, With An All-New Power Up Cafe Serving Super Mario Power Up Themed Menu Items and a Commemorative Special-Release Golden Power-Up Band.

A highlight of the one-year celebration will include a commemorative, special-release Golden Power-Up Band, a perfect addition to the existing six Power-Up Band design options with character themes. The Golden Power-Up Band will be available for purchase within the land and at SUPER NINTENDO WORLD retail shops located in the theme park, starting on February 17.

For a limited time, guests can also get a complimentary 1-Year Anniversary Button. This special commemorative collector piece will be available, beginning February 17 and while supplies last, at Guest Relations, located inside the theme park.

SUPER NINTENDO WORLD is a visually spectacular land, located within an expanded area of Universal Studios Hollywood.
