An Oasis Market trader that lost their pitch when Priory Square closed for good has announced it has found a new city centre home.

Game HQ was set within the 54-year-old Oasis Market until it shut ‘indefinitely’ due to health and safety concerns in March.

The stall sells trading cards including Pokemon and Magic the Gathering as well as other games and figures.

Game HQ is now setting up shop at Great Western Arcade, one of Birmingham’s most beautiful heritage shopping centres, opening on Tuesday, May 13.

Great Western Arcade (GWA) welcomed much-loved Oasis Market record stall Ignite Records for a temporary pop-up in time for record store day while long-time Oasis piercing business Dolly Rockers has taken up temporary residency within GWA salon Cora Hair.

Game HQ will take over Unit 14 in the arcade where it will sell new items while preparing to return to its regular practice of buying and trading cards.

Announcing the opening online, the business wrote: “Good morning all. As promised, we have some great news!

“From Tuesday, May 13, we will be opening at unit 14 Great Western Arcade in birmingham-city-centre>Birmingham city centre.

“It’s only a few minutes walk from the Oasis, and it’s situated in a beautiful Victorian arcade.

“It may take a little while to get fully stocked, but we will have plenty of boosters and singles for sale.

“We are unlikely to be trading or purchasing in the opening week or so, as we work towards getting back to normal.

“We will be open 10am-5:30pm initially, with the possibility of opening on Sundays if there is enough demand.

“We hope to be able to fulfill our preorders for journey together and Prismatic once we are open.

“It will be great to see you all again soon!”

Great Western Arcade is just off Colmore Row and is home to a number of thriving independent businesses.
