MAKING A POSITIVE CONTRIBUTION TO THE COMMUNITY AND REMAINING CONNECTED TO THE EVER-CHANGING NEEDS OF CUSTOMERS AND LOCAL RESIDENTS IN TIMES OF CHANGE

As a center launched 20 years ago, Festival Place was originally designed for an era in which ‘big box’ retailers dominated. The demise of high street brands such as Debenhams and Topshop changed the landscape for retail landlords, while the breakneck pace of the e-commerce revolution and the subsequent impact of the Covid-19 pandemic have changed consumer behaviour irrevocably. The team behind Festival Place have responded with a renewed emphasis on the leisure offer, closer engagement with the local community and delivering a range of events and services that all serve to keep the center relevant and to drive continued footfall.
