Brand store to open near Paris next month

 

  • Brand store to open near Paris next month

    Posted by Huw, 28 Sep 2012 05:04. Filed under Shopping (Europe).

    It seems the LEGO brand store coming soon to Lille that we mentioned a while ago isn't the only, or first one opening in France this year.

    Le Figaro is reporting that there's one opening in a few weeks: "The first LEGO Store lights will come on October 18 in a new shopping centre in Levallois-Perret" which is 6 km north-west of Paris.

    It goes on to say that LEGO plans to open one or two per year over the next five years, which has to be good news for LEGO fans in France, right?!

    (Thanks to supersympa for the news).

It's not too far from belgium, so I might visit it one day.

well I'm glad that Paris is getting a store, but that would have helped like 2 years ago when I was there and couldn't find legos to save my life...

Are you sure it is not in Lille?
Normally this opens at Euralille in Lille

It's in french but you can see the pictures of the store

Perhaps another one is also opening in Levallois-Perret, then that would be 2 lego shops opening next month in france.

I am wondering, why we don`t have Lego Brand Store here in Oslo? Or am I wrong? We are so close to Denmark.

Will have to pay a visit to Belgium( for the Lille store since it aint that far from Brussels) or France (for the Paris store) soon then!

I hope that we'll eventually get one here, even if some are calling my province Mega-Block territory....

Levallois-Perret is on the Metro, so should be really easy to get to by public transport. Will try to pop in next time I'm in Paris. Might go just for the day in November.

When is the opening in Lille? It's only 3.15 hours drive.

@Peter1975 it says in December, I do not know exactly when.
Will keep Huw and the Brickset community up to date when i (or somebody else) gets the news.

I'm sure you've got enough stores lying around that you could pass one over here to Australia, right LEGO?
