Hello Kitty truck returns to Summerlin for 1 day only
Kitty is back.
The Hello Kitty Cafe Truck returns to Downtown Summerlin this Saturday as it continues its tour of the West. The truck will be parked from 10 a.m. to 7 p.m. in the Macy’s courtyard on Festival Plaza Drive.
The truck offers a host of Hello Kitty merchandise, including clothing, a lunch box and cookie sets.
Kitty doesn’t do cash. The truck accepts only credit and debit cards.
The truck debuted in October 2014 as part of a food-related venture from Sanrio, the Japanese company that owns Hello Kitty. To date, the truck has traveled to more than 100 cities across the United States. It has made multiple stops in the Las Vegas Valley in recent years.
The first Hello Kitty item, a vinyl coin purse, debuted in Japan in 1975. Today, Kitty White (that’s her name) is an OG of global popular culture. Before K-pop, there was Kitty.
