The brand new GO York store has officially opened at Vangarde Shopping Park, with a grand opening weekend set for the 7 and 8 September.
The store has already gained attention from local shoppers, with Instagram users stating that the store is the adult version of “a kid in a candy shop” and “like a Willy Wonka’s Chocolate Factory but for the outdoors”.
The record breaking store boasts an astounding 125,000sq ft of space with over 380 brands, covering walking, camping & caravanning, watersports, running, fishing, horse riding and climbing, hosting over 30 branded concession areas including the biggest Yeti store in Europe as well as a new Garmin store with the most extensive range on display in the UK.
The store hosts the first ever Adidas Terrex in store concession in the UK as well as Stanley’s largest store in Europe with the biggest range of products available. The store also houses the biggest World of Weber concession with more than 30 grills on display. GO York also includes a Whitestores Outdoor living store as well as Leisure Lakes latest cycling concept store. The UK’s first Jessops discovery store is opened in GO’s latest York store.
The outdoor superstore also includes a new concept cafe, Alpine Café, where customers can enjoy fresh meals made with locally sourced produce.
Deb O’Donnell, Centre Manager at Vangarde Shopping Centre comments: “The new GO Outdoors store is a welcome addition to the Vangarde shopping centre. Not only does it provide a dedicated space for our outdoor-loving customers, but also provides a community hub where customers can relax, meet and enjoy their shopping time.
