POP MART, last Friday the leading global designer toy company, has opened an exclusive pop-up store at Harrods, set to run for six weeks. The store opened with a unique signing event with Kasing Lung, the creator of the beloved ‘THE MONSTERS’ series, who made his first-ever appearance in Europe.
The pop-up opened on Friday March 14th in Harrods’ Kids Toy Section on the fourth floor and will run for six weeks. It showcases an array of POP MART’s most popular IPs, fan favourites across ‘THE MONSTERS’ series, along with exclusive products and hot releases. This curated space is truly a dream for toy collectors and Labubu fans.
Labubu, a character that has captured the hearts of many, has been spotted with celebrities and fans such as Rihanna, Dua Lipa, Rina, and Lisa from Blackpink. With its rising popularity, the pop-up is expected to attract long lines and eager fans.
Kasing Lung, the visionary behind Labubu, was also in attendance for a two hour signing event at the Harrods pop-up on Friday. Lung created the Monsters series, drawing inspiration from Nordic folklore and mythology, which he cherished in his childhood. The series features characters like Zimomo, Tycoco, Spooky, Pato, and Labubu—who quickly became a must-have accessory for fashion-forward collectors in 2024.
“We are thrilled to expand POP MART’s presence in the UK with this exciting pop-up at Harrods. The brand’s connection with our consumers makes Harrods the perfect venue for our signing event.”
Peter Shipman, Managing Director and Head of Europe
