Covent Garden will be reopening on Monday 15th June, with shops opening their doors for the first time since lockdown began, inclusive of new measures to create a safe environment for all.
Covent Garden will be home to innovative retail experiences with some of its fashion and beauty stores trialling new social-distanced customer services; offering customers both a safe physical experience as well as digitally enhanced shopping.
A new one-way system has been introduced into Covent Garden’s iconic Market Building, alongside social distancing signage, to ensure shoppers can continue to enjoy the landmark setting safely. An estate-wide uniform approach to queuing has been introduced, and hand sanitiser stations will be available across the estate.
A new public seating area will also be installed for visitors to Covent Garden’s Piazza, allowing shoppers to sit within the historic area in safe, social distanced spacing, ahead of al fresco restaurants opening in the coming weeks. This, alongside the rest of the estate, will be cleaned regularly each day.
