Battersea Power Station has welcomed its 50 millionth visitor, less than four years after the shopping centre opened its doors to the public in October 2022.
The milestone represents the transformation of Battersea Power Station from a building that stood empty for nearly four decades into “one of London’s leading retail, leisure, cultural, residential and office destinations,” the business said.
To celebrate, the retail destination is offering visitors on 1 October the chance to win prizes from brands including Dishoom, Anthropologie, Heartcore, Waterstones, Crosstown Doughnuts and Läderach.
Prizes will also include tickets to The Chimney Lift, Ramses and the Pharaohs’ Gold at Neon, and ice rink Glide at Battersea Power Station.
Additionally, Battersea Power Station is welcoming more brands to the centre, which are set to open before the end of the year.
These include Virgin Atlantic Holidays, which will open a new flagship store inside the centre later this year.
Mango is also expanding its presence, moving into a larger unit and bringing Mango Man to the shopping centre.
