Swedish furniture retailer IKEA is inviting 150 customers from its IKEA Family membership scheme to spend the night in-store to indulge in an array of spa treatments.

Dubbed the IKEA Retreat, this wellness sleepover is one of many in-store activities hosted by the furniture giant. Aromatherapy massages, sleep consultations, meditation sessions and advice will be given on how to create a healing environment at home during the event on 7 September.

In addition to spa treatments, guests will have dinner in the store before choosing their bed for the night. In the morning a session of yoga will take place, followed by a healthy breakfast.

The IKEA Retreat will be taking place in several locations, including IKEA Glasgow, IKEA Belfast, IKEA Warrington, IKEA Lakeside and IKEA Manchester.

The 70 year-old retail company recently revealed plans to turn its original store in Älmhult, 60 miles north of Malmo in Sweden, into a museum looking at the history of the brand that operates in more than 40 countries worldwide.
