Simons is opening its first urban Toronto store next month

Get ready to shop, Toronto! Canadian retailer Simons has officially announced that it will welcome shoppers to its new urban store inside Yorkdale Mall starting next month.

As if you needed an excuse to shop. The oldest private, family-run business in Canada is gearing up to open its doors to the public this Aug. 14, 2025, right at 10 a.m.

“At Simons, serving our customers is our greatest privilege,” says Bernard Leblanc, president and CEO of Simons.

“On Aug. 14, we’re proud to open our doors at Yorkdale Shopping Centre and invite Torontonians to discover the distinctive blend of fashion, art, and design that defines Simons. Our history and success have always been rooted in exceptional service — a commitment to our customers, our employees, and our partners — and we can’t wait to share it with Toronto firsthand.”

What to expect 

The Yorkdale location will span more than 118,000 square feet across two floors and feature labels exclusive to Simons. This includes international designers, local brands, and artists who will be revealed at the opening.

According to the brand, staying true to Simons’ Canadian roots and inspired by natural elements, the space will feature architecture by Lemay-Michaud Architecture and interior design by Toronto-based Gensler Design.

This highly anticipated opening is just one out of two planned for Toronto this year. As always, we’ll be sure to keep you updated once the second location, inside Toronto’s Eaton Centre, officially opens. The downtown location is planned for a Fall/Winter 2025 opening.

Simons, Toronto is ready for you!
