Galleria Tbilisi Grand Opening Planned This Week

The Grand opening of Galleria Tbilisi is planned for 8PM on November 30. The new multifunctional shopping mall will have up to 100 international and local brand names, a Cavea Movie Theater, bowling center, entertainment center for children, cafés, Goodwill supermarket and more. Griboedov Theater, Liberty Theater and metro station Freedom Square are to be integrated into the shopping center. Galleria Tbilisi will also have an underground car park for almost 300 cars.

In concept, Galleria Tbilisi is said to be not only a place for shopping, but also an area where customers will have a chance to dine out, have fun and enjoy various services. “Galleria Tbilisi will bring back ‘the heart of the city’ status to this area, in the center of Tbilisi,” Nika Tsintsadze, Galleria Tbilisi CEO told GEORGIA TODAY.

At Galleria Tbilisi, brands like H&M, Calvin Klein Jeans, Armani Exchange, Lagerfeld, Lacoste, Guess, Trussardi, United Colors of Benetton, IKKS, BNG, Delfy, Roman, and NYX are among the names set to be represented, some of them opening their stores for the first time in Tbilisi and Georgia. Of special note is an Apple official premium reseller.

Cavea Movie Theater at Galleria Tbilisi is to be the first Dolby Atmos movie theater in Georgia, equipped with a 360-degree high-quality sound system and comfortable chairs for movie lovers to fully enjoy the experience. Alongside Cavea Movie Theater, the Griboedov and Liberty theaters will be integrated into the new shopping space, together with a children’s entertainment center and an entire floor of Galleria Tbilisi dedicated as a Food Court, with McDonalds, KFC, Burger King, Tashir Pizza, Mado, Sakhachapure N1, one of the Delifrance Bakery chain sub-brands, and more.

“As Freedom Square is integrated into Galleria Tbilisi, visitors can reach the shopping mall directly from the metro, hugely convenient for our customers,” Tsintsadze told us. “And because of its excellent location, for people who live and work in the city center, Galleria Tbilisi will be within easy reach, comfortable to shop for anything they might need,” he adds. “We consider tourists to be just as important a part of our target audience, and we’ll be sure to attract them through our location and services,” Tsintsadze notes.

Galleria Tbilisi will have both commercial and higher-segment brands, so offering “something for everyone”.

On November 30th a number of stores and other amenities will be functioning.

Galleria Tbilisi is a project of the Co-Investment Fund, under the real estate and tourism mandate.
