Faradays Information

Opening in mid-2026 at 131 Queen Street, Faradays will transform the historic Milne & Choyce building into a three-level, 3,000sqm destination for fashion, beauty, home, and lifestyle. The project represents one of the most ambitious retail investments in New Zealand’s history and a major step in the revitalisation of Auckland’s city centre. Designed by Fearon Hay Architects, Faradays will bring together globally celebrated luxury houses, premium brands, and emerging Antipodean designers within a carefully curated environment. Customers will experience an extraordinary multi-brand destination spanning beauty and treatments, hospitality, men’s and women’s fashion, accessories and footwear, childrenswear and toys, vintage, jewellery and watches, home, travel and technology, and gifts. More than a store, Faradays is conceived as a destination – combining exceptional retail with hospitality, events, and immersive experiences designed to inspire discovery and connection. Faradays aims to set a new benchmark for luxury retail in Australasia.
