IKEA Charlotte Opening Day Set
IKEA Charlotte will stage its Grand Opening on Wednesday, February 18, 2009. We’ll be posting about the construction of the new store, developments, and more as the date nears. Get ready North Carolina! IKEA USA is bringing you IKEA Charlotte!
IKEA Charlotte store manager Richard Castanon said the earlier than anticipated date is due to ‘considerable progress’ in construction made during the summer and fall months. The store will be on City Boulevard next to Interstate 85 in University City, and will be the first IKEA in the Carolinas. The 356,000 sq. ft. store located on 25 acres will be the 36th IKEA in the US. It will include 10,000 exclusively designed home goods, 49 room settings, three model-home interiors and the restaurant will seat 350.

Oh, yay! I have that week off because of Valentine’s Day on the 14th and then President’s Day on Monday the 16th! Thank you IKEA for working with my schedule! I’m getting in line! Any word on what the giveaways will be?
I have been waiting for this day for over 3 years.
Now if they will just consider Myrtle Beach in their next round of openings I can die happy.
I heard from a friend that they were actually opening on Monday for those on their e-mail list. Is that true?
There is a media event on the 11th and a Friends and Family event on the 14th (talk about LURVE!), but I haven’t heard about an early opening. That would be COOLIO!
No, IKEA will not host anymore opening until Opening Day February 18th.
