Less than a mile away from a new Barnes & Noble (see story above), Books-A-Million has renovated its store at 430 Gorham Road in South Portland, Maine, and is holding a grand reopening party tomorrow, May 18. Activities include a chance to win a $1,000 gift card, complimentary ice cream and coffee, and a 20% discount for Millionaire's Club Members.
"The revamped store is set to welcome book lovers with a fresh new look and enhanced experience," BAM said. "Located near the Maine Mall, the store has undergone a complete transformation to create a beautiful space that showcases Books-A-Million's commitment to providing a haven for readers of all ages."
Besides "an extensive book collection," the store will feature "reading areas, a dedicated children's section, and a curated selection of gifts, stationery, and literary-themed merchandise. Customers can also look forward to special events, author signings, and book clubs, creating opportunities for book lovers to engage with fellow enthusiasts and authors, fostering and further supporting the vibrant literary community within the Portland area."
BAM v-p of marketing Olivia McDaniel said, "This renovation reflects our dedication to offering an unparalleled literary experience to our customers. From the moment you step inside, you'll be immersed in a world of books, comfort, and community. It's a true destination for book lovers to connect, explore, and discover."
