Bandai Namco Gashapon store coming to Birmingham

Written by Ross Locksley on 03 Apr 2025



Bandai Namco Amusement UK have announced that their brand new Cross Store in Birmingham will open on April 14th.

The store in Camden opened over a year ago, proving to be successful enough to justify a second location in the midlands. 

“Birmingham in the Midlands is a great central location to position our second Bandai Namco Cross Store,” said John McKenzie, MD of Bandai Namco Amusement Europe. “With the great success of Bandai Namco Cross Store Camden, London, we are excited to deliver a consistent experience further north in the country to reach the demand from a large and diverse customer base. Guests and fans will have another hub of entertainment to experience the much-loved Japanese IP and brands we offer.”

 

According to the press release, Bandai Namco Cross Store Birmingham on New Street provides customers with an opportunity to  ‘see’, ‘touch’ and ‘experience’ characters, products, events and feel part of an experience where guests can smile whilst celebrating community and entertainment.

 

It's always good to see more outlets for Japanese culture, and with a presence on the high street and the exposure that brings, hopefully Bandai Namco will continue to march North in future.
