Session overview

This panel discussion will focus on the potential for retail, leisure and cultural investment to catalyse regeneration in city centres, asking how cities need to evolve to meet the needs of consumers in the post-COVID world.

Drawing on lessons from Newcastle, which is transforming its retail and leisure offer through anchor investments from the owners of Eldon Square shopping centre and Fenwick department store, the panel will explore how to create experiences that turn up the volume and capture the imagination of residents and visitors.

Sponsored by Eldon Square and Fenwick.
