As the city reawakens, we invite you to reconnect with each other at The Royal Exchange this autumn. Visit us to celebrate the vitality of community and rediscover the joy of sensory experiences within our welcoming boutiques and eateries. 

Catch up with family and friends over some delectable delights at The Fortnum’s Bar and Restaurant, shop for a new signature scent at Jo Malone London, try on a pair of soft leather shoes at Crockett & Jones, or visit Tom Davies Bespoke Opticians for a state-of-the-art eye examination. Browse the dazzling designs on display in our renowned jewellery and watch boutiques and marvel at the beautiful architecture of our spectacular historic building. The Royal Exchange is a treasure trove of wonders waiting to be explored, where City heritage meets modern luxury.

Our artist in residence series continues, with a specially commissioned artwork by Nicholas Law installed at the main entrance. Inspired by the theme of reconnecting, Law’s interlinking, circular shapes and dark to light colour gradients are a calming reminder of the cyclical nature of life and the interconnected world we live in. Read our Q&A with Law about making the piece and his creative process here.

Celebrating the vitality of community, and reconnecting with each other, we’ve partnered with Mind in the City to explore the important topic of mental health, interviewing members of the City of London community about their approach to wellbeing and who they turn to when they need a helping hand. Read the first interview in our What’s On Your Mind? series here.

Keep an eye on our website and social channels for regular news and features that explore the extraordinary products and sensory experiences to be discovered at The Royal Exchange, as well as interviews with the people who make up our City of London community.
