Sephora to open at Meadowhall next month
After the fanfare that accompanied the opening of Sephora's latest flagship opening in Liverpool, another is being prepared for Meadowhall Sheffield next month… then Manchester Arndale in the summer… and Cardiff St David's Centre in the autumn. '2025 is shaping up to be one of our most exciting (and busiest) years yet at Sephora UK,' said Sarah Boyd, managing director, Sephora UK. 'And bringing our beauty playground to Sheffield is a huge part of that momentum'. So next month (11 July) the French beauty retail giant opens its doors competing head-to-head with the new Superdrug, which opened there just last week (and whose owner is investing heavily in a further 25 new UK stores in 2025). Darren Pearce, centre director at Meadowhall, said: 'The iconic brand will be a fantastic addition to our premium beauty offering and, alongside our other recent openings including Bershka, Frasers, and Oliver Bonas, reinforces our position as one of the UK's top shopping destinations.'

It is globally celebrated, has a huge base of loyal fans, and delivers a bold, compelling concept. Consumer demand for Sephora is strong in Liverpool, and securing best-in-class retailers and experiences for the city is precisely what we aim to achieve at the destination, so the entrance of this beauty powerhouse is a natural partnership.'
