The Barbie movie craze may have plateaued a bit, but the pink nostalgia that inspired it is forever. A Barbie-themed merch truck is making a stop in San Antonio on its 2024 Dreamhouse Living Tour, which continue's last year's tour celebrating the 60th anniversary of Barbie's ever more popular property, and will give visitors a chance to spice up their own homes.
Among the truck's goods are home decor like a throw blanket, coasters, a glass tumbler, a glass mug, a cup for holding accessories, and more. Some new, more homey additions since the truck's last San Antonio appearance are a plate set and a pet bowl.

Fashion-focused Barbies also have opportunities to take home wearable and on-the-go items like a graphic tee, a hoodie, a denim jacket, a baseball cap, necklaces, keychains, and more.'
Visitors to the truck will also get a free gift with every purchase of $40 or more. Items range from $12-75.

Barbie's Dreamhouse isn't just about storing fun trends, but empowering the famous doll with her own space and agency. A release announcing the arrival of the truck shares that when the Dreamhouse came out, only a tenth of a percent of young women were independent homeowners, and states that someone buys a Dreamhouse every minute.
The Barbie Truck will be in San Antonio on Saturday, July 13, from 10 am to 7 pm at North Star Mall. See it in the parking lot on the corner of the 410 access road and McCollough. Arrive early in case of long lines.
