About this deal

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 very own official MONOPOLY board. The announcement was made in February (2022). At the time of the announcement the public was invited to suggest landmarks to feature in the game.

NEWS | One lucky local resident to receive the very first

At today’s announcement that Hereford has landed the honour of its very own customised MONOPOLY game, the public will be invited to suggest landmarks to feature on the board. “The game will reflect the flavour and feel of these suggestions,” adds Ms Gibbs.“The public consultation process will last for three weeks.” Bosses at Winning Moves UK say a variety of factors were used in deciding Hereford from across 25 cities and towns in the West Midlands and western Midlands. These factors include ‘pride’, ‘landmarks’, ‘beauty’ and ‘sense of family’. PERFECT FOR HEREFORD LOVERS: This new Hereford edition of Hasbro's classic board game Monopoly is perfect for 2–6 players It’s great to be hosting the official launch of the new Hereford Monopoly board game and we look forward very much to welcoming Hereford’s very own VIP.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 like the Cathedral and the Edgar Street Stadium. The Community Chest and Chance cards and money are Hereford themed too. We have been wonderfully spoilt for choice putting this unique game together,” says Ella Gibbs, Custom Games Executive at Winning Moves UK, who are the makers of the board under official licensing from Hasbro. “Thank you to everyone who sent in suggestions”. The winner will get to be a VIP at the launch .. meet the game Brand’s icon Mr Monopoly .. and receive the very first board to roll off the presses, which will be specially signed. It’s a fantastic representation of him (Jamal). What he did for the city of Hereford, it’s a touching tribute and his legacy will live on.” Graham, 58, wrote in his entry that when he was a child and fell behind at MONOPOLY he would unsportingly hurl the board in the air, pretending it was an accident!

Hereford Monopoly Board Game - Winning Moves UK

I became good friends with Jamal over his 30 years in Bridge Street and we stood together in the 2015 local elections. We joked together about having tea and samosas in the Mayors Parlour. LANDMARKS ‘PASS GO’:Other Hereford landmarks featuring include: The Green Dragon Hotel, The Bull Statue, the Waterworks Museum, Edgar Street Stadium, the Racecourse, the Cattle Market and the Courtyard Theatre. The train station quartet set that features on the classic original MONOPOLY will be handed over to a travel theme for the new Hereford edition. That’s because Hereford doesn’t have a multitude of main line stations to select from like in the London MONOPOLY original. The brand new official MONOPOLY: Hereford Edition game from Winning Moves UK and global play and entertainment company Hasbro.The family would like to say many thanks to the people of Herefordshire for recommending that Jamal’s Kebab House should be part of the game. FREE FOOD:Near to Free Parking will be Hereford Foodbank, one of several Hereford charities to feature in the game. The board – which is set to feature the great and good of the city like the Cathedral and Edgar Street – is being launched at The Green Dragon Hotel on the same day the game is released in shops. Being rolled out TOMORROW .. the brand new official MONOPOLY: Hereford Edition game from Winning Moves UK and global play and entertainment brand Hasbro.
