Smashing! MLB Opens First Official UK Store

Major League Baseball has opened it’s first ever European stand-alone store, located in Covent Garden in London, England.

With exposed brick and dark wooden fixtures, the “pop-up” location was designed to bring the look and feel of an authentic MLB ballpark to the United Kingdom.

Inside the shop contains a wide variety of official MLB merchandise from all 30 big league teams including authentic on-field caps and jerseys (with options to personalize your jerseys), as well as t-shirts, socks, and even baseball equipment including bats and gloves.

In addition to merchandise the store has a virtual reality setup allowing fans from across the pond to experience live-action Major League Baseball as if they were on the field watching a game.

This is just a temporary deal, the shop will remain open only until the end of 2016. The grand opening was Monday so fans in London can check out the store right now at 78B Long Acre, Covent Garden, and is open 10:00 – 19:00, 7 days a week.
