Customers at Apple Grand Central are being directed to other stores while it’s closed for March 12 and 13. There’s no explanation, but it’s likely to be to do with Apple’s 50th anniversary celebrations.

Apple Grand Central is used to being used for promotional events — it was where the “Severance” pop-up was in January 2025. Given its size and how many people go by it in Grand Central Station, it would make sense for an anniversary event to be held there.
As yet there is no indication, though, of whether it’s an anniversary event, an unrelated promotion, or simply a refurbishment of the store. Buyers coming to the store on Thursday March 12, 2026, just saw a sign telling them it was closed.
