The Bicester Collection

Created in 1995, The Bicester Collection has reimagined the boundaries around the worlds of luxury retail, hospitality, live music and sports entertainment, curating extraordinary experiences for the world's most discerning guests. Located in Europe, China and North America, The Bicester Collection's 12 Villages are world-renowned as iconic, open-air shopping destinations. Each offers the world's best brands at incredible value, as well as celebrated restaurants and peerless services.

The Bicester Collection brings together extraordinary live music and sports experiences at the first third generation UBS Arena serving the New York metro area (home to the New York Islanders ice hockey team), a pioneering concert venue featuring the Isles Lab Team concept store. The Collection's award-winning hotel destinations, Mission Pacific Beach Resort and The Seabird Ocean Resort & Spa (with its Michelin-starred restaurant, Valle; celebrated Sunny's Spa & Beauty Lounge; and locally curated boutique The Ozone), are vibrant destinations in Southern California's hidden gem, Oceanside.

The Bicester Collection exists to be experienced in the real world. To be actual, not virtual. To be lived.

WERTHEIM VILLAGE

Surrounded by turreted castles against a backdrop of wooded hills and ancient forests, Wertheim Village is located in the picturesque wine-growing region of the Tauber Valley, which Goethe believed to be the most beautiful in all of Germany. Calmer in temperament than neighbouring Frankfurt, the Village is a tranquil open-air oasis, taking inspiration from its setting on the Romantic Road to reflect its fairy-tale heritage.

With mo then 110 bouiques lining pedestrianised, landscaped streets, Wertheim Village offers savings of up to 60% on the former recommended retail price of a unique edit of German and international fashion and lifestyle brands.

The Village also boasts staurants and cafes offering menus to suit all tastes, including take-away culinary treats.
