The revamped *Scape will officially be relaunched in November with more dedicated spaces for young people, aiming to reach more than two million people in footfall within a year.
Among the changes after renovation works is the almost doubling of capacity at The Ground Theatre, an event space within *Scape that opened in 2013. It will now be able to host 870 guests, up from 450.
Mr Ethen Ong, deputy executive director of *Scape, said around 20 per cent of the building will be dedicated to free spaces and seating that young people can use freely for hanging out.
