Mall of America® to become home to Minnesota's first POP MART retail location

Blind boxes, Labubus, and more, POP MART will soon pop into MOA

BLOOMINGTON, MN — August 11, 2025

Mall of America® is proud to announce the highly anticipated arrival of POP MART, the global leader in the designer toy phenomenon, will soon be opening its first brick-and-mortar store in Minnesota. Known for its artistic, character-driven collectibles and passionate fan base, POP MART’s debut adds an exciting, interactive retail experience to our Mall of America lineup.

Founded in 2010, POP MART now has over 350 locations worldwide. It has taken the world by storm, building a passionate international community, combining art, pop culture, and fashion-forward design in its figurines, eye-catching bag charms, blind boxes, and more. The brand’s viral presence on social media is fueled by fans eager to unbox the latest releases, making this opening at Mall of America a milestone for the Minnesota shopping scene.

“We are thrilled to welcome POP MART to Mall of America,” said Ashley Hofmann, Leasing Director at Mall of America. “Their innovative retail concept and globally loved characters bring a bold, creative energy to our tenant mix. At Mall of America, we’re focused on curating a dynamic mix of tenants that excite and inspire our guests. POP MART is a perfect fit; they’re not only a globally recognized brand, but they’re also redefining how people shop and engage with products.”

POP MART’s success is driven by its broad and diverse portfolio of original IPs, including collector favorites like CrybabySKULLPANDA, and Peach Riot. Recently, the iconic Labubu character from The Monsters, has emerged as a global sensation, with high aftermarket demand popularity across the world, making its in-store availability a major draw for serious collectors and trend-watchers alike.

The new store will feature exclusive product offerings, rotating collaborations, and a thoughtfully curated retail environment that highlights creativity and collectability. With a diverse range of characters and products, POP MART offers something for everyone, from seasoned collectors to curious shoppers.
