The expansion provides businesses with numerous opportunities to reach consumers through play, products, and experiences.<\/p>\n<p>\n\u201cFor nearly 55 years, NERF has built its reputation across the globe as the go-to social active play brand. NERF AX acts as an extension of this lifestyle, inviting fans and families to join for thrilling experiences, dynamic gaming and much more,\u201d said Matt Proulx, VP, Global Experiences, Partnerships and Music at Hasbro. \u201cWe have big plans for NERF AX in 2024, with North American locations set to open in New Jersey and Tennessee. To add to the excitement, fans who visit NERF AX at New Jersey&#8217;s Garden State Plaza mall will be among the first to play NERFBALL.
