Hold your breath, shopaholics. Thailand is soon getting its very own luxury outlet malls like those you’ve been to in other countries—imagine Rinku Premium Outlet in Osaka or Citygate Outlets in Hong Kong—as CPN, the parent of Central shopping centers nationwide, is bringing the concept to the kingdom, opening the first Central Village near Suvarnabhumi Airport in August 2019. But what we can expect from the first luxurious outlet in Thailand? Here, we’re giving you a lowdown.
1 Have an “aerotropolis experience” complete with luxury hotel and restaurants
Central Village looks to become a gateway for both inbound and outbound travelers. Situated minutes away from one of Asia’s busiest airports, Central Village is complete with outlet shops, restaurants, tourist service joints, and a world-class hotel. A free shuttle bus to and from Suvarnabhumi Airport and Central World provides everyone easy access to the grounds, making it an ideal tourist destination.
2 Shop ‘til you drop at more than 200 boutique stores
Said to be Thailand’s first international luxury outlet, Central Village will be home to more than 235 stores of well-known brands from around the world. Expect to shop for brands like Polo Ralph Lauren, Kenzo, Vivienne Westwood to CK Jeans, Adidas, Converse and Superdry. So, get your wallet at the ready!

3 Save money every day without waiting for seasonal sales
Now you don’t have to wait for mid-year or year-end or whatever-occasion sales as each boutique at Central Village will be offering you a 35-70% discount (on selected items) on a daily basis. Always looking for a look for less? This is your new go-to place.
4 Chill at cool spots made for people of all ages and genders
You don’t need to be a traveler to enjoy the cool bits of Central Village. Apart from fashion boutiques, Central Village will also be home to all kinds of merchandise, from home appliances and kitchenware to toys and decorative items. It will also provide outdoor spaces everyone in the family could spend a quality time together. It’ll definitely be a place for everyone.
5 Make a quick stop before heading to the airport
Don’t like being rush before the flight, yet hate being stranded at the airport for long hours? Located only ten minutes away from Suvarnabhumi, you can just take a free shuttle bus from Central World to Central Village to burn out your last bit time (and money), feast on yummy bites, and pocket home good memories.
