The previous YO1 Beach Club

York Designer Outlet are bringing back their beach – and this year its bigger and better than ever.

Following the success of the YO1 Roller Rink and Beach Club last summer, the shopping centre will once again install a beach outside the South Entrance for York residents and holidaymakers to enjoy.

Titled ‘The Great Summer Social’, it officially kicks off from Saturday 8 July and will be open throughout the whole summer.

And this year it includes an ever wider range of activities for visitors to enjoy.

Challenge your family and friends at table tennis, basketball hoops, beach games, and a nine-hole mini golf course – for free!

Visitors can also enjoy their food al fresco style in the beach area, while lounging on deckchairs and catching some rays. No summer experience would be complete without ice cream, and it’ll be available from eateries such as Crepe Creations and Caffe Valeria.

Paul Tyler, centre manager at McArthurGlen Designer Outlet York, said: “We know only too well how much Centre guests loved our summer event last year, so our latest attraction will guarantee an extraordinary outing for the entire family alongside a premium shopping experience.” 

Though there’s no charge to join in with the summer fun, the Designer Outlet are encouraging visitors to make a small donation to its Charity of the Year, the Selby-based charity Spirit of Christmas.

The charity promotes education, family, and community interaction, and provides toys to disadvantaged families, so no child goes without a present to open on Christmas day.
