The fashion retailer will hold a ribbon-cutting ceremony at its new two-floor store in the Grosvenor Centre on October 19.

"River Island is a household name and one of the most popular and well-known high street brands. The new shop will build on the current high quality offering we have here at Grosvenor Shopping Northampton.
