It will also sell books including fiction, graphic novels, music biographies and young adult titles.
Phil Halliday, Managing Director at HMV and Fopp said: “With more than 32,000 products on offer, the location is primed to become the premier pop culture hub in the city. We can’t wait to welcome customers in on Thursday 22nd October to see all it has to offer.”
