This summer, Belmont Park Village is offering wheels to its designer deals.
Starting July 8, the luxury outlet center next to UBS Arena in Elmont, LI, will provide complimentary sprinter vans round-trip from Southampton every Wednesday. That way, Hamptonites hungry for unbeatable prices on European and American designer fashion and accessories – and delicious brasserie fare at superstar chef Timothy Hollingsworth’s Hundredfold restaurant – can explore the open-air shopping destination.
Vans leave Southampton at 10 am and depart from the Village at 3 pm. Spots must be reserved online in advance.
The premium-brand promenade – located just 30 minutes from midtown Manhattan and less than 20 minutes from JFK and LaGuardia – debuted in October 2024. Designed to look and feel like a picturesque town center, the complex features spacious walkways, a tree canopy, well-placed seating and abundant free parking. There are even chess and ping pong tables and a dog bar with water on tap for pups.
Today, its stone-paved streets are lined with some 40 stores including Valentino, Gianvito Rossi, Coach, Rene Caovilla, Longchamp, Zadig & Voltaire, Vivienne Westwood, Missoni, Aquazzura, Thom Browne and Orlebar Brown, plus a Brand Salon for exclusive pop-ups and sample sales.
Nine more shops – from A.P.C., Rag & Bone, Kiton and Billy Reid to Herno – are slated to open this summer and fall.
Visitors enjoy up to 65% off retail prices every day, along with special offers, such as this month’s additional 30% off at the Roberto Cavalli and TWP stores and on ready-to-wear at Missoni.
Each designer boutique carries main collection pieces, from archive finds and previous season looks to red carpet finery. What’s not on the racks: merchandise made specifically for the outlet channel from less expensive materials.
Guests can also sip and save. On Wednesdays, anyone who orders the signature Gianvito Rossi cocktail at Hundredfold will receive an additional 20% off at the store.
Beyond the brasserie, culinary options range from plant-based Le Botaniste and Pret A Manger to weekend pop-ups, such as Froyo from Le Botaniste in partnership with CocoJune and BonBon Swedish Candy.
To add to the fun, there’s plenty of special programming on site. On Wellness Thursdays, for instance, fitness-forward guests can take yoga and pilates classes. The next class will be on July 16 at 11am. Meanwhile, on Summer Saturdays, the Village hosts live music.
Perks include hands-free shopping (a concierge stows your bags) and access to The Apartment, a plush invite-only suite space for private shopping and special events. Guests can register with the concierge for arena delivery, where purchases are delivered to UBS’s Isles Lab Team Store for pickup after an Islanders game or select concerts (Lionel Richie with Earth Wind & Fire and Shakira are performing this month).
Belmont Park Village is the latest addition to The Bicester Collection and its first foray into North America. The retail and hospitality giant operates 12 Villages near gateway cities, including Paris, Milan, Barcelona, Brussels, Dublin, Frankfurt and Shanghai. The leafy retail plazas are famed for their high-end brand assortments, elevated shopping experiences, fine dining and exclusive services.
