Apple Provides Update on Store Closure in the Netherlands

Apple has announced that its Den Haag retail store in the Netherlands will be reopening on Thursday, August 14, following a temporary closure.

Apple Store Den Haag
As we previously reported, the store has been closed since June 1 for renovations, but Apple had not announced a reopening date until now.

First opened in 2014, Apple Den Haag is located in The Hague, in the province of South Holland. The location is one of Apple's flagship stores, with beautiful historical architecture. It is located in a covered walkway, known as an arcade. The remodeled store may feature an Apple Pickup station for online orders, but the exact changes planned are unknown.

Apple has two other stores in the Netherlands, in Amsterdam and Haarlem.

Thanks, Filip Chudzinski!

Since when is a 2 month minor retail store refurb cause for MacRumors “news”?

Slow day with Apple already briefing an underwhelming WWDC I guess.
It’s MacRumors, not the Washington Post.

A Dutch Apple Store closes and 2 days later the Dutch government collapses, coincidence? I think not.

Pity that Apple Store is never busy at all. And that Big Screen Learning Center isn't used at all.
Depends it can be crazy busy after new introductions, evenings and weekend days. But a Tuesday morning around eleven is I’ve a quiet moment.
The big screen is used several times a day for explainers, training and product introductions etc.

The “passage” area itself is really nice indeed. The surrounding neighbourhood can be a bit worn. They are in the process of improving it, but other areas are more inviting. Hoogstraat and noordeinde are more open and offer better shops.

Aren’t they supposed to be used for “Today at Apple”?
