Yep, a full skatepark open to the public (and it's FREE) with two distinctive areas - one replicates some of London's famous skating spots - like the Big Ben Gap and the Moorgate handrail. The second area is set with obstacles inspired by the pop up shop (celebrating skate culture x fashion) Selfridges is doing in their store next door.
They will also have skate nights hosted by brands like Sidewalk Magazine, Kingpin Magazine, and more. For the girls, I hear Cooler Magazine (one of our favs!), is having a girls skate night at the park. Can't wait to see pics from that & post them for you guys.
The park is designed & managed by Prime & Fire and is a joint venture between Prime & Fire, Selfridges & HTC. It's part of Selfridges "Board Games" concept store which celebrates the worlds of surf x skate via a high fashion filter - featuring fashion designers like Stella McCartney & Jimmy Choo & Streetwear designers such as the Billionaire Boys Club. The pop up store is something you don't want to miss!
