Selfie-focused experience to run for six weeks at Icon Outlet
AEG and Crosstree Real Estate Partners have announced the opening of the selfie-focussed experience, Selfie Factory, at The O2. The concept formally launched to the public on Saturday 1 February and is set to run for six weeks.
Selfie Factory spans 2260 sq ft and homes numerous photobooth scenes, including a giant ball pit room, a doughnut wall, and a pink supermarket. Visitors at the pop up offer can buy tickets for 30 minute, 60 minute and whole day slots.
The O2 is the fourth site for Selfie Factory, following successful pop-up tenancies in Brighton, Bluewater and Westfield Stratford.
Will Bower, managing director of Selfie Factory, commented: “The O2’s high footfall figures, iconic entertainment status and the presence of other premium leisure activities, such as KickTown, made the location an ideal target for us. The destination’s strong millennial customer base also aligns seamlessly with the focus of our concept towards the ‘Instagram generation’ keen to create and share their own selfie content. We look forward to welcoming visitors to our pop-up over the next six weeks.”
Commenting on behalf of AEG and Crosstree, Marion Dillon, Leasing Director for Icon Outlet at The O2, said: “The Selfie Factory pop-up is another opportunity for our visitors to immerse themselves within our experience-led offering at The O2, alongside shopping at premium fashion brands such as Calvin Klein, Nike and adidas within Icon Outlet. Selfie Factory adds another facet our 360-degree entertainment, fashion and hospitality offering; a concept suited to our Instagrammable location, events, and consumer audience.”
