CLARKS Village is extending its opening hours, allowing visitors more time to shop and dine at the Somerset outlet village, with free parking available.
As we reach summer, stores across Clarks Village will now be open until 7pm Monday to Wednesday, Friday and Saturday, and until 8pm on Thursdays.
Restaurants will remain open until at least 9pm, with some open as late as 10pm on weekdays and 11pm on weekends.
Sunday shopping hours will remain 10am to 5pm.
Mike Jones, centre director at Clarks Village, said: "Clarks Village is an enormously popular daytime destination for both locals and guests visiting from further afield.
"By extending our hours and offering late-night dining combined with free evening parking, we’re creating a 'golden hour' experience, giving our guests flexibility to make the most of everything the outlet has to offer at any time of the day and long into the evening."
Located in Street, Clarks Village features more than 90 brands, set in an outdoor environment.
Recent additions to the centre include Crocs and Christy, joining established names such as Levi’s, Mint Velvet, Tommy Hilfiger, Sweaty Betty, Calvin Klein, and Rituals.
Other highlights include the world’s largest Clarks shoe store.
Existing retailers are also investing in the outlet; Dune London has recently relaunched its store, and Joules will reopen later this month following a refurbishment.
Dining options include Wagamama, Bill’s, Pizza Express, the newly redesigned Prezzo, and Slim Chickens.
Both indoor and outdoor seating is available.
