The 2025 edition of our extremely festive, hand-selected, hand-wrapped LUAKA BOX comes with something for everyone this holiday season. Note: These bundles are a bit different, depending on whether you order it from the U.S. or order it from the EU & UK.
If you order it from the U.S., we painstakingly and lovingly pack it in a hand-screenprinted pizza box ourselves at HQ — and throw a bunch of cute holiday debris in there. If you order it from the EU or the UK, someone else packs it, sans debris, but with just as much care and love.

THE LUAKA BOX: THE U.S. EDITION (SHIPS FROM NEW YORK)
If you order from the US, you'll get these records lovingly packed in a hand-screenprinted pizza box with an old-school VOTE FOR LUAKA BOP button (pressed on our button maker in house) and a folded poster from our collection, randomly (but lovingly) chosen.
