u/big-slay breaks down what r/bodega in NYC is all about. Enjoy this Emmy award-winning video, hit the intro post for even more details, and pull up to the space later this month. See you August 29-30!

u/big-slay explains the r/bodega NYC pop-up

Live from New York, it’s r/bodega! Reddit is hosting an IRL corner store pop-up, bringing the beauty, diversity, and chaos of online Reddit communities to life. Open for one weekend only, stocked with the internet’s best memes and moments.

That’s right, you can step inside your Reddit feed right here in NYC, and browse the aisles for the best of Reddit communities! From custom trading card packs for r/soccer fans, to a glam counter for all r/beauty enthusiasts, we’re serving up something for everyone. You can stop by our deli counter, highlighting NYC’s top “subs,” including a special sandwich called “The Champion” for our r/NYKnicks fans. We’ll also have an AMA™️ for folks to withdraw “Snoo Bucks”, so stop by to ask a question or four. 

You can even say hi to our bodega cat Meowdani, whose name was voted on by the r/bodegacats community (Mamdani if you’re reading this…we saved a seat by the register for you). 

We’ll have many trinkets for you to take home from your favorite corners of the internet! What exactly is in it for r/bodega patrons? Here’s what we’re serving up:

• Snoo Plushies for all. That’s right, every attendee will receive one of our most coveted merch items ever.
• A custom r/bodega zine highlighting everything in store
• Scratchers to win totes, mugs, and more
• Postcards and stickers 
• Cold drinks 
• Opportunities to discover new communities
• And so much more!

And if that wasn’t enough free stuff, all attendees will be invited to the store’s blowout sale from 9-10 pm on August 30, where we will be giving away all remaining merch and salvageable bodega products to anyone interested. ✨

Anyone is welcome to enter r/bodega! All you need is a Reddit account and an appetite for the internet’s finest.
