Battersea Power Station announced today that global training brand, NOBULL, will open its first permanent concept store in Europe in the newly restored Grade II* listed Power Station, which opened its doors to the public on 14th October 2022 alongside Electric Boulevard, a new pedestrianised high street for London. Founded in Boston in 2015, NOBULL is a footwear, apparel and accessory brand with a strong global community.

Located in the Power Station’s Turbine Hall B, which was completed in the 1950s and has more of a brutalist, industrial look and feel, the new Training Club will be a disruptive experiential concept store, allowing the NOBULL community to engage with the brand in new, hands-on ways. True to the NOBULL ethos, the Training Club will be designed with thoughtful simplicity, intended to be approachable and functional. It will be a hybrid space seamlessly blending equal parts shopping, cafe, town hall and functional training space.
