HMV returns to Cork with new Merchant's Quay store

Joins Golden Discs in the fight back against the digital onslaught

New HMV store in Merchant's Quay, replaces Dealz.

More than a decade after it left the heart of Cork City, His Master’s Voice (HMV) is making a high street comeback, with a new store set to open in Merchants Quay in time for the busy Christmas market.

In a deal brokered by Lia Dennehy and Daire Brennan of Savills, with Daniel Murphy of Bannon representing the tenant, the music and entertainment retailer has taken out a 10-year lease on the outlet, at a rent of €90,000 per annum.
