It was inaugurated on November 12, 2015, and is the fourth largest mall in the Nordic countries with 224 stores and restaurants, many of them with double-height storefronts up to 8 m (26 ft) tall. 50,000 shoppers showed up to the opening of the mall. About 20-25% of the leasable area is dedicated to experiences, there are 44 restaurants and a 15 screen multiplex with the first purpose-built commercial IMAX theatre in the Nordic region (and also the second overall IMAX theatre in Sweden after the Cosmonova planetarium at the Swedish Museum of Natural History). The shopping mall has 3,700 parking spaces and a retail gross leasable area of 101,048 m (1,087,670 sq ft).

The project cost is estimated at SEK 6.1 billion and the mall is owned by Unibail-Rodamco with Peab as the main contractor.
