Victoria’s Secret opened its second Ottawa-area store today at Rideau Centre. Two stores technically opened: a 9,600 square foot Victoria’s Secret store on the mall’s third level, and a 4,000 square foot Pink by Victoria’s Secret store on the mall’s second level. 

Victoria’s Secret is the latest retailer to open in Downtown Ottawa’s Rideau Centre. The mall is seeing major upgrades that will include a 157,000 square foot Nordstrom store, a 105,000 square foot La Maison Simons store, and a new 18,000 square foot Harry Rosen store. Nordstrom and Harry Rosen will both open in the spring of 2015, and Simons will open a year later.  


Victoria’s Secret’s first Ottawa location opened in October of 2013 at the Bayshore Shopping Centre. At about 13,400 square feet, the Bayshore space is about the same size as the combined Victoria’s Secret stores at the Rideau Centre .
