Westpoint Shopping Centre Unveils Revitalised Dining And Entertainment Precinct

Christmas arrived early for shoppers at Westpoint, Blacktown, with the completion of its $10-million-dollar dining precinct upgrade, transforming the centre’s top level into a world-class family dining and entertainment destination.

Since opening yesterday, December 14, the precinct now features a whole level of refurbished recreational spaces surrounding retail, including HOYTS Cinema, Zone Bowling and a new format Timezone.

Added to the mix is the arrival of indoor play centre Chou Chou Bebe and popular axe-throwing venue Kiss My Axe plus a brand new Club Lime Gym and WOTSO, a modern co-working space.

Serving the growing population, Westpoint customers can now shop at the centre’s 300 specialty stores and enjoy the renewed level four dining offer boasting cuisines from around the globe, including the recently opened Grill’d restaurant and highly popular Volcanos steakhouse.

Don’t forget the brand-new outdoor playground and beautiful gardens.

Westpoint Centre Manager Carly Xerri was excited to launch the refreshed level four precinct and hoped the new additions would encourage shoppers to visit over the festive season.

“The opening of the centre’s upgraded level four precinct comes at a perfect time for Christmas, with families actively seeking opportunities to connect and enjoy experiences together, like seeing a movie, bowling or dining out,” Xerri said.

“With the commencement of the January school holidays shortly, it’s also a great time to take the kids to a play centre or spend time in the new inviting outdoor space and playground.

“We’ve taken a community-first approach to upgrading our dining and entertainment precinct. We saw there was an opportunity to bring more family-friendly spaces to the centre, as well as a chance to showcase six incredible artists, most of whom are based in Sydney.

“The combined dining, entertainment and art experiences create a well-rounded shopping experience for young families, teens and the many multicultural communities that call Blacktown and surrounds their home.”
Customers can enjoy various art pieces ranging from hand-painted murals and sculptures to digital artwork and lighting installations.

‘Connection’ was the theme that inspired the precinct design, with the project team acknowledging that shopping centres are an important part of the social fabric of a community where customers feel ownership and connection to their local centre.

The new level four precinct will be a hub of activity throughout the holidays, commencing with the Christmas wonderland of Snowfest tonight and tomorrow, December 15 and 16. The free evening event includes a DJ and live music, roaming entertainment, magical snowfall, Christmas characters, festive face painting, hip hop dancers and special giveaways.
