THE 2024 POP INSIDER HOLIDAY GIFT GUIDE

See this gift guide? Not very demure, but very mindful. That is, we thought about it a lot.

Being a fan means you belong to something. Franchises are so much more than pieces of content like movies and TV shows. They are entire universes full of characters, heart, stories, and more — they mean a lot to people, and rightfully so! They connect us, they make us feel seen, and they bring a whole lot of joy. And when pieces of these worlds we love become reality through merch? Well, that’s when the magic happens.

Our team of pop-culture experts is proud to present our sixth annual holiday gift guide, full of in-your-face, shout-it-out-loud, can’t-miss gifts.
