AT&T debutes new entertainment-focused retail store in Chesapeake

AT&T plans to debut a new 4,123 square foot entertainment-focused retail store in Chesapeake.

The new store design reflects the changing ways customers use their mobile devices for entertainment. In the last year alone, video traffic on the AT&T network grew over 75%.

In the new store, customers can interact with content across many different screens and find the best video, internet and wireless options available from AT&T. This unique store joins a lineup of more than 5,300 AT&T owned and authorized retail stores nationwide.

Some key features of the new store format are:

• Entertainment, everywhere. The new stores illustrate the intersection of content and connection. Reps are trained to show how services, like DIRECTV and DIRECTV NOW and products can add value to your connected life.
• Smartphones and more. AT&T moved the phones off the walls to the center of the store to make it easier to compare and choose what’s best for you. Also, two focus areas show the most popular brands and products like AR glasses, tablets or smartwatches. The lineup of accessories has expanded, and easier to find in the store.
• A comfortable experience. The stores were designed to have a personal connection with representatives and services. Comfortable areas were added where customers and reps can work together.

The new store in Chesapeake is located at 1501 Sentinel Drive (in Greenbrier Square) and opens on October 30th. The hours of operation are: 9 a.m. – 8 p.m., Monday through Saturday and 11 a.m. – 6 p.m. on Sunday.

If you can’t make it to the store on opening day, there will be a grand opening celebration on Saturday, November 16th with food, games, prizes, and special offers.
