Uniqlo opening three NYC stores — here’s where
Uniqlo is expanding its footprint in New York City.
As part of its 2026 expansion, the Japanese apparel retailer is opening a store on Fifth Avenue near Bryant Park on March 6, and a location in the Williamsburg section of Brooklyn on March 20. Uniqlo will touch down in Manhattan's Union Square neighborhood on April 3.
Each of the stores will spotlight the people, creativity and neighborhoods that shape the city, and feature exclusive, location‑specific designs created in collaboration with local artists, cultural partners and institutions. Designs will be available on T‑shirts and tote bags, alongside in‑store displays and experiences that bring each partnership to life, the company said.
The Union Square store will feature a special tribute to Andy Warhol, marking the location where the artist’s Factory studio thrived from 1974 to 1984. The collaboration reflects Warhol’s belief in art for everyone, translating his iconic Pop Art imagery into accessible, wearable essentials.
“By returning to this historic address, Uniqlo celebrates Warhol’s enduring influence on New York City and the idea that great design — like great art — belongs to everyone,” Uniqlo said.
New York Public Library
Uniqlo also announced a partnership with the New York Public Library. The library offers free access to books and programs that foster learning and connection, the company said, and through this partnership, Uniqlo will support world‑class cultural and youth‑focused programming that remains free and open to all helping to foster a more inspired New York City.
“We are proud to partner with The New York Public Library, whose mission to make knowledge and opportunity accessible to all deeply resonates with us,” said Fuminori Adachi, CEO of Uniqlo USA. “New York City has inspired Uniqlo since we opened our first store here twenty years ago, through its creativity, diversity, and strong sense of community. As one of the city’s most iconic cultural institutions, The New York Public Library helps sustain that spirit, and this partnership reflects our commitment to supporting the spaces that bring New Yorkers together.”
Uniqlo is a brand of Fast Retailing Co., Ltd., a leading Japanese retail holding company with global headquarters in Tokyo. The company has a total of more than 2,500 Uniqlo stores across the world, including in Japan, Asia, Europe and North America.
