POP MART Brings THE MONSTERS Exhibition to NYC

POP MART launched "THE MONSTERS 10th Anniversary World Tour" in New York City on July 17, 2024, marking the exhibition's debut in the United States. This immersive event spans 6,000 square feet and is divided into nine distinct galleries, offering a comprehensive look at the franchise's decade-long history. Following successful runs in Shanghai, Taipei, Hong Kong, Paris, and Tokyo, the New York stop is the first U.S. engagement for the popular collectible brand.

The exhibition traces the evolution of "THE MONSTERS" characters, including LABUBU, ZIMOMO, and TYCOCO, from their initial sketches by creator Kasing Lung. Visitors will journey through the franchise's development over the past ten years, with each of the nine galleries offering a uniquely produced environment designed to enhance the storytelling experience. Kasing Lung is also making his first visit to the U.S. in conjunction with this event.

Located in Manhattan's Meatpacking District at 423 W 14th St., the exhibition occupies a substantial 6,000-square-foot space. The experience culminates in a dedicated gift shop featuring a wide array of items from the 10th Anniversary collectibles and accessories collection. These exclusive products will be available for purchase while supplies last, blending the retrospective exhibition with a significant retail component. The exhibition is scheduled to run through August 31, 2024.
