Festival Place: The Beating Heart of Basingstoke
Festival Place is more than just a shopping centre—it’s a vibrant hub of retail, dining, and entertainment that has become a cornerstone of the town’s identity since opening its doors in 2002
A Shopper’s Paradise
Spanning over 1.2 million square feet, Festival Place boasts over 200 stores, from high-street staples like Next, Marks & Spencer, and H&M, to tech giants like Apple and stylish favourites like Pandora. Whether you're after fashion, gadgets, or gifts, it’s all under one roof.
Flavours for Every Craving
Foodies are spoiled for choice with more than 20 eateries offering global flavours. From the smoky burgers of Five Guys to the Latin zest of Las Iguanas, and the comforting classics at Côte Brasserie, there’s something to satisfy every palate.
Entertainment & Leisure
Festival Place isn’t just about shopping. It’s home to a 10-screen Vue cinema with luxury reclining seats, a Flip Out trampoline park, an Escape Room, and even a community library—making it a go-to destination for families and thrill-seekers alike.
Easy Access & Smart Parking
With a newly refurbished car park featuring bay monitoring lights, coloured zones, and electric charging points, visiting is hassle-free. Plus, with the bus station on the doorstep and Basingstoke train station just five minutes away, it’s perfectly placed for locals and visitors alike.
Why It Matters
Festival Place isn’t just a commercial space—it’s a community anchor. From hosting local events to supporting charities and offering accessible facilities, it reflects the spirit of Basingstoke: welcoming, dynamic, and full of life.
