JAY-Z fans in London are about to get a major dose of hip-hop history as the official JAY-Z 30th Anniversary Pop-Up Experience arrives at Camden Market this week.
Opening on Thursday 27 August, the week-long experience will take over the UMusic Shop Camden ahead of JAY-Z’s highly anticipated London stadium shows, celebrating three decades of one of hip-hop’s most influential careers.
Running until Wednesday 2 September, the pop-up will be the exclusive UK stop for the JAY-Z 30 anniversary experience, following its record-breaking three-night run at New York’s Yankee Stadium.
JAY-Z 30 Comes to Camden Market
Set inside Unit 835 at Camden Market’s Historic Stables, the pop-up promises fans an immersive look into JAY-Z’s world, with a selection of exclusive products and anniversary memorabilia.
The experience celebrates the 30th anniversary of JAY-Z’s landmark debut album, Reasonable Doubt, which helped establish the rapper as one of the defining artists of his generation.
Visitors will be able to shop limited-edition London-exclusive JAY-Z 30 apparel, pieces from the wider anniversary collection, anniversary vinyl releases and copies of The Book of HOV: A Tribute to JAY-Z by Assouline.
The experience will also feature Armand de Brignac, adding another touch of JAY-Z’s wider cultural legacy to the pop-up.
