If you're gearing up for a shop-til-you-drop visit, Westfield Shepherd's Bush has everything you need.
2019 June 12Westfield Shepherd’s Bush shopping centre was developed by the Westfield Group. Because the site is bordered by the A3220, A40 and A219, the centre’s transport links are excellent.

The Westfield Shepherds Bush cinema is called Vue, a state-of-the-art multiplex facility. It seats almost 3000 people and offers a total of twenty different screens. As you can imagine they show a large range of different movies, some for children and others for adults. You’ll enjoy Sony 4K picture quality and Dolby surround-sound. There’s a bar to relax in, the Scene Bar, and they even hold events there.
KidZania is billed as an indoor city run by kids. Your children choose from a number of cool real-life activities, all of which take place in a safe space where you can leave them while you shop. It’s designed for kids aged 4-14 and all the games they play mix learning and reality with fun, everything from playing doctor, dentist or police officer to firefighter, actor or dancer.
There’s much more, though. The games they play earn kidZos, a kind of money, which they can then spend having even more fun, doing great things like climbing in the special Climbing Building. Once your child earns 75 kidZos they can open a bank account and get their own bank card. They’ll want to stay all day!
