Joanna Lea, director of retail at Grosvenor Britain and Ireland, said they were excited to unveil the “revamping of Motcomb Street”.

She said: “We are delighted to reopen Motcomb Street in this way.

“Our investment to upgrade the street's public realm confirms our commitment to the retailers that make this part of our London estate so appealing.

“We have a vision to activate neighbourhoods with a better blend of retail, enterprise, luxury and interest that can grow our estate's appeal to workers, residents and visitors.

“The revamping of Motcomb Street will help us deliver that vision.”

Eateries such as The Good Life Eatery, Rococo Chocolates, The Fine Cheese Co and Pierre Herme will keep their doors open until 10pm during the party.

Music will be provided by live jazz and soul bands, including K.O.G, a Glastonbury favourite, and the Old Dirty Brasstards.

The Errol Douglas salon will take its hair styling services to the creative Secret Garden on Halkin Arcade, giving visitors a chance to try out the braid trend.
