University features on new Loughborough-themed Monopoly

A special Loughborough-themed edition of Monopoly has been launched, with the University featured on the most expensive square on the board!

The Loughborough edition was formally launched on 6 October at Loughborough Town Hall. Other Loughborough locations featured alongside the University include the Carillon Tower, the Great Central Railway, Queens Park and the Outwoods.

Locations for the board were nominated by the public earlier this year after Monopoly confirmed it was making a special edition for the town.

Key Monopoly staples such as ‘Go To Jail’, ‘Chance’ and the ‘Go’ tiles remain unchanged for this new edition, but there are some Loughborough tweaks for other long-standing traditional parts of the game; the ‘Community Chest’ gains the support of Charnwood Arts and Rainbows for the board game.

The Loughborough edition of Monopoly is available in stores and can be bought online now, priced at £34.99.
