East Midlands Designer Outlet


The East Midlands Designer Outlet is a shopping complex with more than 65 stores located at South Normanton, Derbyshire, England.

Located off Junction 28 of the M1, 14 million people live within a 90-minute drive of the centre and 2.7 million shoppers visit each year. There is parking capacity for 1,200 vehicles. Brands represented in the outlet include Calvin Klein Jeans, French Connection, Tommy Hilfiger, Lacoste, Radley, Next Clearance, Marks & Spencer Outlet, Clarks, Jaeger, adidas and Gap. It is run by the company McArthurGlen.

The centre was partially destroyed by fire in October 2004 but was relaunched successfully in August 2005 with a campaign called 'Ready'.

In recent times the Outlet has played host to guests such as TV celebrity chef James Martin. They also regularly hold free family fun events during school holidays and at key seasonal times.

The complex was formerly called McArthur Glen Outlet Village Derbyshire and McArthur Glen Designer Outlet Mansfield. Locally the designer outlet is known as Junction 28 (for the motorway junction it is near to) or simply McArthurGlen. The Outlet also boasts a new contemporary style foodcourt, built in October 2008.
