"Following the earthquakes that struck Christchurch on Friday 23 December , Westfield Ricccarton has reopened today.
Structural engineering assessment and building services inspections were carried out enabling the centre to open for trade at 9am on Saturday 24 December 2011.
The safety of our retailers and our shoppers will always remain a priority. We thank shoppers for their patience as we worked to reopen the centre."
