Shortly after opening, the Village rapidly became the preferred shopping and leisure destination for some 3 million customers who now visit Bicester each year. Approximately 40% of visitors are from overseas; the centre is the number one shopping destination outside London for Japanese tourists.

The brightly painted buildings and colourful awnings frame cobble-stoned walkways, punctuated by flowerbeds, intimate seating areas and outdoor cafes. An ample children's play area, comprehensive Visitor Centre as well as other comfort amenities contribute to a relaxed shopping day out for the entire family.
