The destination brings together experiential retail spaces with first-of-its-kind entertainment and F&B, coupled with green parks, seamless transportation links and innovative design interventions.

The design concept blends the interior and exterior, celebrating the natural landscape of the city’s bayside mangrove forests to deliver a modern and luxurious shopping and lifestyle destination for Shenzhen.

As a Gold Award winner, MixC Shenzhen Bay will go on to compete in the ICSC VIVA (Vision, Innovation, Value, Achievement) Best-of-the-Best Awards alongside other regional winners from around the world.
