Mo Bamba Cards & Collectibles opens Friday, Sept. 11 with a 10 a.m. ribbon cutting and a full day of festivities at 2350 Guadalupe Street, directly across from the UT campus. Austin Monthly reports the announcement and says attendees will have a chance to meet Bamba and enter to win exclusive giveaways — the article does not list a price for admission or require tickets.

The shop will carry sports trading cards plus Magic: The Gathering, Yu-Gi-Oh!, and One Piece; Cole Anthony will host a dedicated Pokémon corner. Inside, sleek glass displays will showcase rare singles and vintage jerseys, and there’s a wall marking Bamba’s wingspan. Bamba told Austin Monthly he bought a home in Austin and intends to use the store as a hangout for collectors.
