Teen crowds to queue for opening of ‘One Direction’ pop-up store in Wellington

On Friday 20 April at 9am, the doors will open to New Zealand’s only official ‘One Direction’ merchandise store. Crowds of teens are expected to be there early to be the first to get their hands on a limited number of T-shirts and dolls of their singing idols.

Merchandise will include a range of T-shirts, hoodies, posters, photo sets, wristbands, photo frames, phone covers, bags, notebooks, dolls and more. The store will only be open until Monday 23rd April.

The 100th person to purchase One Direction merchandise will win a double pass to the Wellington show.
