Galería Canalejas, the new icon of luxury in the heart of Madrid, is celebrating the inauguration of its first phase with the opening, on 1 October, of its boutique located at the emblematic confluence of Sevilla and Alcalá streets. Exclusive premises situated in what was the former headquarters of La Equitativa, and which houses the new boutique of the prestigious French maison, Hermès.

The opening of this first boutique in Galería Canalejas precedes the grand opening of more than 40 luxury fashion, perfume, accessories, and haute-jewellery boutiques such as the prestigious international firms Cartier and Rolex, which will be held jointly at a second opening phase scheduled for the first half of 2021.

The presence of Hermès in Galería Canalejas, as well as that of other leading maisons, confirms not only the exceptional appeal that our project has for national and international luxury brands, but also the potential of Madrid as a shopping destination and as an indisputable cultural and gastronomic landmark”, says Juan Pablo García Denis, Galería Canalejas Managing Director.
