Grand Re-Opening Celebrations on September 25-26 at the Citadelle Plaza
Some of you may have seen one of our flyers asking you to save the date for the weekend of September 25-27 for our Grand Re-Opening Celebrations. You may have asked yourselves why a "GRAND RE-OPENING?" Did we close our doors at some point? What new has opened? Why are we so excited about the Citadelle Plaza and are planning so many fun events in one weekend? These are all great questions and you've come to the right place for your answers!
The Citadelle Plaza originally opened their doors in 2007 with a wonderful design and a handful of unique shops and services for the upscale client in the North Valley area. The timing was difficult as the state and the country began the serious economic downturn we have all experienced for the past two years. The original Owner went bankrupt and was forced to sell many of his properties, including the prized Citadelle Plaza. These announcements went all over the Internet and many neighbors, tourists and the like, assumed that the Plaza had closed. But the store owners and restaurants were very much alive! They each worked hard and kept their loyal clients happy with quality services and goods, and offering amazing customer service.
Approximately six months ago, Bill Metzler/ West Coast Capital Partners acquired the Citadelle Plaza. He immediately put GPE Management Services into the property management role and within weeks you began to see dramatic improvements to the Plaza. If you haven't had the pleasure of meeting Diana Gobet (the property manager), go up to her office on-site and say hello!
Soon, new stores began to open like State Farm, Canyon Physical Therapists, Stein Chiropractic, Blissful Yoga, and the Melting Pot is scheduled to open November 1st, too. This alone is cause for celebration!
The new Owner thought we should all celebrate with our Glendale neighbors, our West Valley residents (and other people further away who have discovered this wonderful shopping center!) with a weekend full of fun parties and events. Who doesn't like a party?
We begin the celebration with a fun, family night of activities. We wanted that small town, family experience like so many people enjoyed growing up in the Midwest. So, help your child decorate up his "wheels" (bikes, wagons, scooters, etc) and join our parade around the center. Next Coffee will have delicious hamburgers and roasted corn and yummy brownies for purchase on the courtyard. There are five categories for the kids' "wheels" to win trophies & smoothies: 'Most Patriotic', 'Funniest', 'Coolest', 'Prettiest', and 'Best Overall'.
Bring your classic cars and motorcycles for an old-fashioned cruise around the center, too! Or, just come to see the area reserved for exotic and classic cars. How about a race car from one of the West Valley's up and coming stars for NASCAR? That's right, Victor Pfluger will be in his race outfit and is bringing his car for photo ops and he will be signing autographs.
Be sure to visit the information booth where we will be selling raffle tickets for prizes to benefit a Glendale-based charity, the AZ Myeloma Network. You can sign up for their 5K Run/Walk & 1-Mile Fun Run called the 'Race for Hope for All Cancers' (October 18th at Westgate City Center). We West-Siders all stick together for a common cause!
While, you're here, be sure to visit the best shopping in Glendale at our boutiques, too. They all have specials running for the Grand Re-Opening weekend.
Saturday, we celebrate with a Runway Extravaganza and we have partnered with MOViN 97.5 from 6-9PM on the Plaza and from 9 PM on at Glendale's finest nightclub, the Sangria Luxe Lounge. Be sure to sign up for the Ultimate Flyaway Giveaway: 2 airlines tickets to Las Vegas, 2-night stay at the Mandalay Bay and two tickets to the Justin Timberlake and friends concert (October 17). The only place you can sign up to win is at the Citadelle Plaza at this event. So, tell your friends about this exciting offer!
The runway will showcase many of our merchants with Zumba class demos from Oasis personal training facility, Yoga demos from Blissful Yoga Studio, hair extension demo with Coco Sanders of Appearances (located in Vivaldi Hair Suites) and Hair Shimmers from Indulgence Salon and Boutique to name just a few. Then from 8:00 PM to 8:45 PM, our boutiques will provide an exciting Fashion Show. This is one show you will not want to miss. Foot Klan will also be performing in between segments of the Fashion Show!
