MINISO Liverpool: Chinese lifestyle store known for huge queues reveals Liverpool opening date
MINISO is set to open its new Liverpool store with exciting celebrations, including free goody bags.
A huge Chinese lifestyle brand will make its Liverpool debut in a matter of days, with a 3,000 sq. ft store stocking trending collectables, plushies, beauty products, snacks and homewares.
MINISO opened its store in Bristol earlier this year, with the first 300 shoppers enjoying a goody bag giveaway and long, snaking queues forming outside. The demand was so high that our Bristol reporter, Adriana, queued for two hours.


Known for stocking popular brands and character merchandise - such as Hello Kitty, Pokemon and Harry Potter themed goods - MINISO’s new store will open on Lower South John Street, in Liverpool ONE.
The new store was announced in December last year and now, after a long wait, the officially opening date can be revealed.


Announcing the launch date on their website, MINISO said: “The countdown is on – our brand new MINISO store is opening its doors at 11AM on Saturday May 17 in Liverpool ONE!
“Step into a world of joy and discover everything from Sanrio and Disney delights to squishy plushies, trendy lifestyle must-haves, snacks, and collabs you won’t want to miss – like Disney, Pokémon and of course Hello Kitty!


“We’re going BIG for our Liverpool Grand Opening with exciting in-store celebrations – think FREE £25 goody bags for the first customers, fun entertainment, and plenty of surprises along the way!”
Goody bags will be available for the first customers who spend at least £5, while stock last.
The Liverpool store’s next door neighbour, Boux Avenue, has revealed it will open on Friday, May 16. MINISO is also located next to Bath & Body Works, which officially launched in April.
