Jakub Skwarlo, COO Central Europe, Unibail-Rodamco-Westfield, said:
“This is a milestone moment for one of Prague’s most established shopping and lifestyle destinations. We are proud to combine the legacy of the centre, the first modern shopping destination in the Czech Republic, with the international appeal of the Westfield brand, crowning it Westfield Černý Most. The rebranding, combined with the unveiling of the extension, sets a new benchmark for retail, dining and leisure in the region.”
Westfield Černý Most joins the now over 40 Westfield flagship destinations in the US and Europe. This unique platform of the world’s best shopping and lifestyle destinations incorporates exceptional retail mixes, exciting brand experiences and interactive events, as well as industry-leading services and sustainability standards.
Elevated fashion brand mix & exciting flagship formats
The 9,100 sqm extension brings a curated mix of both new arrivals and existing tenants in enhanced, state-ofthe-art formats. Among the highlights is the first Prague shopping centre location of JD Sports, known for its focus on streetwear and sneakers, and the full representation of LPP Group’s fashion brand portfolio: Reserved, Sinsay, House, as well as flagship stores from Mohito and Cropp (to follow in spring 2026).
Book lovers can look forward to the Knihy Dobrovský bookstore, with a design focused on creating a comfortable customer experience, while Xiaomi brings a fresh range of cutting-edge consumer electronics to the centre. These new and upgraded stores complement the existing mix that includes key partners such as Peek & Cloppenburg, H&M, New Yorker, Nike, Foot Locker, Decathlon, Sportisimo, Sephora and Douglas, as well as Globus, dm and Rossmann.
A benchmark in culinary experience
The heart of the extension is the new Dining Plaza – an entirely reimagined food experience combining a family-oriented design, comfort and sustainability. Unlike traditional food courts, this space integrates tableservice restaurants, double-storey layouts and revolutionary concepts such as the robotic restaurant iFood. Visitors can explore flavours from around the world, with culinary newcomers such as Popeyes, Dean & David, Banh-mi-ba, Musakka, Tom’s Burger, Sakura’s Running Sushi, Burger King, Koykan and more.
Several beloved tenants have also significantly upgraded their presence with bold new flagship-style formats, including reimagined McDonald’s, Costa Coffee and Ovocný Světozor outposts.
Premium entertainment, boutique cinemas and new experiences
Westfield Černý Most is also setting new standards in cinematic entertainment. CineStar has been elevated with the introduction of a Boutique Cinema and a brand-new Gold Class complex, featuring three intimate premium theatres with reclining armchairs, tables and plush cushions, a private lounge and bar, as well as incinema-food service offerings. With only 30 seats per screen, this marks the first Gold Class cinema within a shopping centre in the Czech Republic.
In addition, Form Factory Fitness has relocated to new premises, designed to deliver a significantly upgraded gym-experience for customers.
Four days of celebration – headlined by Zara Larsson
To mark this major milestone, Westfield Černý Most is hosting a four-day inauguration celebration packed with exclusive offers, live entertainment and a festive welcome for customers. The highlight of the festivities will be an exclusive live concert by international pop sensation Zara Larsson for an expected 3,500 guests on November 13, delivering a world-class experience to both Westfield Club members and the public.
Shopping and leisure destination leading in sustainability and innovation
The extension and modernisation of Westfield Černý Most have been implemented in line with URW’s “Better Places” sustainability plan and include a fully sustainable Dining Plaza with porcelain dishware and bio-waste sorting. New construction was made using low-carbon concrete, while original building materials were reused wherever possible and interior elements were recycled.
These measures are supported by extensive biodiversity features including bee hives, bat boxes and relocated greenery, as well as new solar panels and smart waste management. The project targets BREEAM “Excellent” certification, reinforcing URW’s commitment to the environmental transition of cities and the sustainable evolution of retail.
