Manhattan, NY International travel, lifestyle and accessories brand TUMI opens the doors to its newly renovated Rockefeller Center store at 30 Rockefeller Plaza on March 31, 2026, marking a significant milestone for the brand in one of the city’s most iconic retail destinations.

Originally opened in 2000, the location enters its 26th year with a full-scale redesign, introducing TUMI’s latest Manifest retail concept — an elevated expression of the brand’s evolving vision at the intersection of performance and lifestyle.

Spanning 2,080 s/f, the reimagined space brings a more immersive, design-forward experience to Midtown. Signature elements include bronze titanium Heritage Walls showcasing premium capsules, illuminated podiums dedicated to small leather goods, a bespoke fragrance fixture, and a large-scale digital screen that anchors the environment. In-store monogramming — both complimentary and premium — further reinforces TUMI’s focus on personalization and utility.

At launch, storefront windows spotlight the brand’s latest Spring Summer ‘26 Mediterranean Escape collection, introducing a seasonal lens of color and movement against the backdrop of the city.

As both a global hub and creative catalyst, New York City continues to inform TUMI’s design ethos — its pace, precision, and constant motion shaping a modern approach to movement that is equal parts functional and expressive. The Rockefeller Center renovation reflects this ongoing dialogue, reinforcing TUMI’s presence at the center of where the world moves.
