Grand Opening of Westfield Stratford City

September 13th, 2011 saw the opening of Europe’s largest urban shopping centre in the heart of East London – Westfield Stratford City. This retail project will be part and parcel of the Olympic Park when the games come to London in 2012. The 1.9 million square feet of retail and leisure development paves way for one of the poorest boroughs in London to be regenerated and become one of the places to be in London.

The center was official opened by Mayor of London, Mr Boris Johnson and the Westfield Group Chairman, Mr Frank Lowy AC.

Nicole Scherzinger was also the star attraction to entertain the opening day guests. Other events had celebrities like Kelly Brook, Colin Jackson, Professor Green, etc. all over the shopping center at various outlets either officially opening them or performing to a handful of luck guests in the outlet.
