Pass GO, collect tickets for Wembley and watch Hereford FC play in the FA Cup Final. Sounds implausible? Well, not, as it’s all in the game.
The brand new official Monopoly: Hereford Edition game from Winning Moves UK and global play and entertainment company Hasbro is all set to be revealed this Thursday 6th October 2022.
In this unique edition of the world’s most famous board game all the famous multi-coloured Monopoly property squares like Mayfair and Park Lane from the classic Monopoly London original are represented by Hereford landmarks and organisations. The Community Chest and Chance cards and money are Hereford themed too.
Hereford landed the honour of its very own customised Monopoly game after seeing off 24 other places across the west of the Midlands to win the accolade of its own official Monopoly board. The announcement was made in February. At the time of the announcement the public was invited to suggest landmarks to feature in the game.
“We believe we have been wonderfully spoilt for choice putting this unique game together and can’t wait for launch day on Thursday,” says Ella Gibbs, Custom Games Executive at Winning Moves UK, who are the makers of the board under official licensing from Hasbro. “A huge thank you to everyone who sent in suggestions.”
Over the last 25 years Winning Moves UK and Hasbro have produced official versions of Monopoly in cities all over the world from Dubai to Sydney .. and now Hereford. The Monopoly: Hereford Edition game hits the shops at 10am on Thursday 6th October 2022 and will be available at Waterstones, WHSmith and extensively online, including on Amazon and Booghe.
