The Armoury to close for refurbishment

Arsenal Football Club’s flagship retail store, The Armoury, will close for a period of refurbishment at 9pm this Saturday, March 29, following the Premier League fixture versus Manchester City.

The Club’s main shop at Emirates Stadium will undergo a complete refit which will provide Arsenal fans with an unrivalled store to enjoy and explore, and purchase official Gunners merchandise. As part of the upgrade, a host of new technological and interactive additions will be made to enhance fans’ experience.

While the main store is closed, a new retail kiosk located above The Armoury on podium level will trade during business hours from Sunday, March 30, for 12 weeks. In addition, The Arsenal Highbury House (located on Drayton Park), Finsbury Park and Brent Cross Shopping Centre stores will continue to trade as normal, along with the three matchday kiosks located on concourse level.

Arsenal Football Club Retail Director, Simon Lilley, said: "The new-look Armoury store will be the centrepiece of our retail operation here at Emirates Stadium and this upgrade is crucial to give supporters the best possible Arsenal retail experience. While our online platform www.ArsenalDirect.com continues to grow and develop, it is vitally important to have a flagship store to match and I am sure that our match-going fans, stadium tour customers and other visitors will welcome the new and exclusive products on offer when The Armoury re-opens its doors in the summer."
