IKEA to Launch First Pop-Up Store in Northern Ireland

The new Pop-Up store will also host a Collect Near You point, enabling customers to pick up IKEA online purchases closer to home. 

IKEA is set to open a new pop-up store in Northern Ireland at The Boulevard, Banbridge, on 13th November. Located at The Boulevard, the 250 sqm location will feature a selection of 150 home furnishing accessories – including kitchen, bedroom, and living room essentials – which will be available for immediate takeaway.

In addition, customers will have access to free, personalised kitchen and wardrobe planning services. The site will also host a Collect Near You point, enabling customers to pick up IKEA online purchases closer to home. This will complement existing Collect Near You points in Ballymena, Antrim, Limavady, and Dungannon.

Michaela Quinlan, Market Manager, Ikea Belfast, said, “We are excited to welcome customers to our first pop-up in Northern Ireland.”

“This is not only an opportunity to meet new customers where they are but also a chance to make IKEA even more accessible. Whether you’re planning a dream kitchen or picking up everyday essentials, we’re here to help customers across Northern Ireland create the spaces they love.”

“The addition of our Collect Near You point at The Boulevard is also an exciting step toward making it even easier for customers to shop with us, allowing them to order from our entire range online and conveniently collect their purchases nearby.”

The opening marks IKEA’s first pop-up store in Northern Ireland.

Paul McCann, Asset Manager, Lotus Property (owners of The Boulevard), said, “It’s fantastic to welcome IKEA to The Boulevard as part of their first pop-up initiative in Northern Ireland.”

“The addition of a global brand like IKEA not only enhances the retail experience for our visitors but also reinforces The Boulevard as a dynamic destination for shopping. We’re confident this arrival will be hugely popular with our loyal customers and visitors from across the region, especially the busy Belfast to Dublin corridor.”
