Practical tips for your visit
FoxTown is open every day of the week, including Sundays — a notable feature in Switzerland, where many stores remain closed on Sundays. Anyone planning a shopping day before their Malpensa flight should consider that a return trip with extra purchased luggage requires a suitable vehicle: minivans are the most practical choice for bulkier shopping hauls. Up-to-date opening hours and the full brand list are on the official FoxTown website.
