Sephora is opening another huge store in Manchester this summer
The Manchester Evening News can exclusively reveal where and when the beauty giant is opening it's next megastore in Manchester
Last year, beauty buffs around Manchester went wild as Sephora opened its first major UK store outside of London in the Trafford Centre. Following huge success in London's Westfield shopping centre, the Trafford Centre seemed the obvious next step for the beauty giant to bring its extensive offering to a Northern audience.
The Trafford Centre Sephora launch, which took place in May 2024, saw huge crowds forming ahead of its doors opening - with a thousands-long queue so extensive it curved through the entire shopping centre and into the car park. Some shoppers were so keen to get in first they were spotted camping outside.
Since it opened, the Trafford Centre's Sephora store continues to see a heavy stream of shoppers - which comes as no surprise given the vast array of makeup, fragrance, haircare and skincare brands in store - many of which cannot be found elsewhere. Paired with its more tailored and personalised approach to beauty, with its own brow bar, a Sephora Lip Bar, a Hot on Social corner consisting of the 10 most talked-about products on social media, a personalized gifting and gift wrapping, and a fragrance engraving service, it's no wonder it's become a pinnacle of the Greater Manchester shopping centre.
Now, the Manchester Evening News can exclusively reveal that Sephora has confirmed it is opening a second Manchester store - in the Arndale. The launch is scheduled for summer 2025.
Manchester Arndale will be Sephora UKâs tenth store. Other Sephora stores that will be opening in 2025 include Liverpool ONE and Sheffieldâs Meadowhall Shopping Centre. Sephora UKâs current store locations include Westfield London, Westfield Stratford City, Manchesterâs Trafford Centre, Newcastleâs Eldon Square, Gatesheadâs Metrocentre, Birmingham Bullring and Bluewater Shopping Centre in Kent.
Sarah Boyd, Managing Director at Sephora, told the M.E.N. why the brand has made the decision to open a second store in Manchester. She said: "Manchester showed us phenomenal support when we opened our first store in the region, which blew away all our expectations.

We already know there is strong appetite from beauty enthusiasts in Manchester as we saw over 2,000 eager customers queue on our opening day last year, and we look forward to recreating the same energy at Arndale and to continue providing an unparalleled beauty experience like no other."
2024 was a landmark year for Sephora UK, with the launch of its first stores outside of London. The brandâs regional expansions have been met with excitement and enthusiasm, as beauty lovers nationwide flock to experience a curated selection of top beauty brandsâmany of which had never been available in the UK until Sephoraâs arrival.
Sephora Arndale will continue to bring an incredible selection of expertly curated, ground- breaking local and global brands that have disrupted the beauty industry across the makeup, travel, fragrance, skincare, haircare, grooming and wellness categories. As part of the unparalleled shopping experience that Sephora strives to provide, beauty enthusiasts can indulge in exclusive, âOnly at Sephoraâ brands such as the iconic Makeup by Mario, Haus Labs by renowned global artist Lady Gaga, and cult heroes which have stood the test of time from Tarte Cosmetics.
