Bicester Village’s Western Terrace Expansion: Everything You Need to Know

If you’ve visited Bicester Village recently, you’ve probably noticed construction near the western entrance, with the former rugby ground now being used for parking during the works. So, what’s actually being built?

The answer is the Western Terrace – an exciting new development that will transform the arrival experience for visitors while adding even more reasons to spend a day at one of the UK’s most popular shopping destinations.

 

What’s Being Built at Bicester Village?

The Western Terrace is a new three-storey development designed to create a welcoming entrance and provide a central hub for guest services. The project forms part of Bicester Village’s continued investment in improving the visitor experience while maintaining the premium feel that has made it famous.

 

During construction, the former rugby ground has been temporarily converted into additional parking to help accommodate visitors.

New Shops, Restaurants and VIP Services

When complete, the Western Terrace will introduce additional luxury retail space alongside new cafés and restaurants, creating even more opportunities to relax between shopping.

The development will also include enhanced concierge services, personal shopping experiences, home delivery options and upgraded VIP facilities, making a visit to Bicester Village even more convenient for guests travelling from across the UK and overseas.

A More Sustainable Bicester Village

Sustainability is also at the heart of the project. Plans include energy-efficient building design, air source heat pumps, electric vehicle charging points and improved pedestrian areas, helping create a more environmentally responsible destination for future visitors.

Stay Just Five Minutes from Bicester Village
