WILLIAMSBURG— Local game store, Tap N Roll, kicked off its grand opening weekend with a ribbon cutting joined York County on May 17.
Tap ‘N Roll opened its doors in December of 2022, and since opening, the store has seen overwhelming support from the community of gamers that have made the store a location to play. In response, the business moved and expanded to a new location in April.
The ribbon cutting was attended by members of York County Economic and Tourism development as well as Board of Supervisors member Douglas R. Holroyd.
“We’re excited to invite [Tap ‘N Roll] into York County,” said Holroyd during the ribbon cutting. “Obviously this is an expansion [for the store] and I think this is just the start of a very wonderful business, so congratulations, we’re excited to have you.”
“We super appreciate everyone being here. Usually when the store is full, everyone is playing and right now you guys are probably one, super excited about Lorcana being out today and two, saw one or two of my posts on Facebook about the ribbon cutting,” said co-owner Katherine Bass light-heartedly. “Thank you guys for being here, its really you guys that made it possible to move from the old shop and expand. We’re super excited to see what comes next.”
In addition, Tap ‘N Roll announced before cutting the ribbon that it received Premium status with Wizard of the Coast. Premium status with Wizards of the Coast, according to Wizards official website, means that the store will now have access to exclusive product, promos, marketing material, and special events. Tap ‘N Roll is also currently the only store in Hampton Roads to have this status.
Until the store closes on May 19, the store will be hosting events and a raffle in celebration.
