JONESBORO, Ark. — The Golden Grotto, a well-known costume and party supply store on Red Wolf Boulevard, is closing its doors after serving the community for 41 years. A storewide closing sale will begin on Friday, Nov. 13, according to the business's announcement on social media.
The store's Facebook post cited unspecified circumstances for its decision but did not provide a specific closing date. Located at 1717 Red Wolf Blvd., The Golden Grotto was founded in 1985 as a costume shop and has since expanded to include party supplies. Over the decades, it became a popular destination for costumes, wigs, masks, balloons, decorations, and other event essentials for both children and adults.
“We couldn’t have done it without you!” read the store's message, thanking customers for their support over the years. The announcement reflected on the shop's role in providing supplies for countless parties, Halloween celebrations, and theatrical productions in the northeast Arkansas region.
For now, customers can visit the store to take advantage of its closing sale.
