The board’s ‘Big Reveal’ ison Thursday 6 thOctober 2022–when a GIGANTIC life-size replica of the MONOPOLY edition for Hereford will be unfurled in the city as the much-anticipated game is officially launched and released to shops. 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.

The locations on the standard British version of the board game Monopoly are set in London and were selected in 1935 by Victor Watson, managing director of John Waddington Limited. Watson became interested in the board game after his son Norman had tried the Parker Brothers original US version and recommended the company produce a board for the domestic market.
