Topps kicks off free football festival

New series of festivals aim to bring games and challenges to collectors of all ages.

Trading card and collectables specialist, Topps has kicked off its series of October free festivals, with the aim to bring games and challenges to collectors of all ages.

Opening at Milton Keynes’ The Centre MK, guests to The Topps October Festival were welcomed by Paz and Ketch from Match of the Day and got to participate in a host of activities centred around fan favourites including Premier League Match Attax, Champions League Stickers, WWE and the new I Believe In range.

Inviting fans to swap their cards with other collectors, the festival is a seven-date tour visiting five shopping centre locations and the Football Museum throughout October weekends and school half-term.

Marking the launch of the new Mattch Attax Premier League 18/19 season collection, football enthusiasts and fans of Match Attax can get to try their luck in a head-to-head challenge of stats, tactic and skill to win special Match Attax master cards, and enter further exclusive football giveaways.

Topps has also partnered with record breaking star Dan Magness, who is appearing throughout the festival to offer football freestyle tips and perform his freestyle routine.

The festival welcomed over 25,000 visitors during its 2017 run and is aiming to attract even more collectors for 2018.

Along with the shopping centre tour, TOPPS will be further supporting the new Match Attax collection by running in-store activities and events throughout half term within selected The Entertainer and Smyths stores.
