All signs point to the opening of the Apple Store Livat Beijing at 10:00 (UTC+08:00) on Saturday, 06 December 2025. On a day typically associated in the West with St Nicholas, this is indeed quite an early gift for southern Beijing.
The Livat Centre finds itself in Daxing, southern Beijing, beyond the 5th Ringway (which defines built-up central Beijing). This would then make it the southernmost Apple Store in the Chinese capital.
Featuring a mostly Scandinavian design, Livat is also home to the second IKEA in Beijing — interestingly packed over two levels instead of the usual three. The entire shopping centre is busy especially on weekends and holidays, and sports an expansive, covered car park.
Livat Centre Beijing finds itself right by Xihongmen (西红门) Beijing Subway station on the Daxing line. The new store will be at ground level.
This would be the 6th Apple Store in Beijing, and the 9th across Northern China (the Beijing + Tianjin + Hebei area). The district of Daxing, which has seen visible urbanisation in recent years, is in southern Beijing, and hosts Beijing’s new Daxing Airport.
