Place Of The Week – Las Rozas The Style Outlets, Madrid, Spain

As the very first outlet center in Spain, Las Rozas The Style Outlets has been catering to the needs of customers since 1996. The center, which can very well be described as historic, is now undergoing a planned refurbishment project that will update the location both inside and outside, making it the “Place Of The Week” for ACROSS.

Owned and operated by Neptune, a joint venture between NEINVER and TIAA, Nuveen’s parent company, Las Rozas The Style Outlets is a landmark shopping destination on the northwest of Madrid featuring over 40 brands with a strong sports and outdoor retail offer, such as Nike, Adidas, Puma, Asics, Converse and The North Face.

The center benefits from an excellent location, close to residential and business areas and only 15-minutes to Madrid’s city center. The outlet is very well connected and enjoys access to two key motorways, A-6 and the M-50 ring road. Since its opening in 1996, Las Rozas has continued to evolve ever since, serving a catchment of over 7 million people.

The outlet center’s now ongoing 3-million-euro refurbishment project aims to transform it into a more modern and inviting space. One of the standout features of the project is the transformation of the central plaza into an urban greenhouse. This space will host a towering tree surrounded by a patchwork of green pockets and hanging planters, further adding to the sense of immersion in nature and creating the ideal setting for visitors to relax and recharge.

Las Rozas In Numbers:

  • Opening: 1996
  • GLA: 9,600 sq m
  • Number of stores: 42
  • Parking spaces: 400

The main plaza will be extended to allow for a new entrance and improve the center’s overall accessibility. It also includes the addition of a new F&B area and coworking space to cater for today’s hybrid lifestyles that combine work, shopping and leisure.

Meanwhile, the outer façade will be given a cleaner, more contemporary look, strengthening the center’s visual identity and providing the perfect canvas to showcase its brands. Across the site, pavements will be widened, new terraces added and rest areas introduced at the entrance points for enhanced accessibility and visitor comfort.

The center’s sportswear offering was strengthened in the final quarter of 2024, with major brands such as Puma, Skechers and Adidas opting to double their floorspace ahead of several new arrivals that are poised to land soon. Among them, the popular footwear brand Munich, which is set to triple its store size. The refurbishment is expected to attract new brands and expand the center’s offering in women’s fashion and F&B following its completion this summer.
