Always One Step Ahead

EUROPARK in Salzburg offers an urban, timelessly modern shopping experience combined with the highest quality of stay and service as well as a variety of cultural attractions. The SES center is the uncontested number one and the region’s leading shopping center. Its core competences in the brands and fashion segments, its varied gastronomic offer, including upscale cuisine, first-class events, award-winning infrastructure, and the best possible transport connections make EUROPARK Salzburg the place to be. In terms of sales density, EUROPARK ranks among Austria’s best. Many new retail concepts choose EUROPARK for their nationwide launches. Due to its huge economic success, its social and cultural commitment, and its well thought-out use of resources, the center has set new international standards. In 2007, the flagship of SES was awarded the title “World’s Best Shopping Center” by the International Council of Shopping Centers. EUROPARK is one of the state’s most important businesses and is the largest private workplace in Salzburg. Every year, the Salzburg-based center attracts more than 10 million visitors from Austria and abroad. More than 20 percent of visitors come from the neighboring state of Bavaria. The attractive and functional architecture of EUROPARK was designed by the renowned Italian architect Massimiliano Fuksas. Art and Culture are Parts of our Center Philosophy. Thanks to the OVAL, EUROPARK is the only shopping center in Europe that offers regular performances on an arts and culture stage. Sculptures by artists such as Jonathan Borofsky and Jörg Immendorff can be seen on the center grounds.
