The wait is over. On the 24th June, St James Quarter opened phase one of the development to the public for the first time. Guests were seen entering the stunning 850,000 sq. ft galleria, exploring Edinburgh’s newest fashion district.
The Scottish Ballet were on hand to kick start the celebrations with dancers demonstrating their award-winning formations against the spectacular St James Quarter backdrop.
Over 40 retailers welcomed the public through their doors on opening morning, many of which are debuting their brand in Scotland for the first time, including, & Other Stories, Stradivarius, Bershka, and Pull&Bear.
Six new brands will join the line up in the coming weeks, including the Scottish foodhall, Bonnie & Wild, which opens next month, as well as Bross Bagels, The Kooples and Aeronautica – with a further 19 opening by the end of Autumn.
