Party City struggled during the pandemic — shortages of helium and in-person parties played a significant role.

The store in Holland, according to an employee, will remain open until April 29 or until all inventory is sold. Sales begin Wednesday at 10-30 percent off.

Party City is adjacent to Bed Bath and Beyond in Felch Street Plaza. Bed Bath and Beyond employees in Holland Township learned earlier this month their location would close.

The vacancies will be the most significant in the center since OfficeMax closed in 2017, filled by PetSmart in late 2018.
