H&M Christchurch Store Hours, Locations & Online Shopping
The classic Christchurch shopping question: where is H&M, and when does the store actually open? The answer spans two locations — one on Cashel Street in the central city, one inside Westfield Riccarton — and their hours are not the same. Both stores are worth knowing before you plan a trip, and the practical details below, from addresses to evening hours, come straight from H&M’s own NZ pages (H&M NZ Store Locator).
Cashel Street Address: 2/168 Cashel Street, Christchurch Central City, 8011 · Cashel Street Hours: Mon–Fri 09:00–18:00, Sat–Sun 10:00–18:00 (H&M NZ Cashel Street page) · Riccarton Address: Westfield Riccarton, 129 Riccarton Road, Christchurch 8041 · Riccarton Phone: (03) 983 4500 (H&M NZ Westfield Riccarton page)
Quick snapshot
- Two Christchurch stores: Cashel Street and Westfield Riccarton (H&M NZ Store Locator)
- Cashel Street address: 2/168 Cashel Street, Christchurch Central City, 8011 (H&M NZ Cashel Street page)
- Riccarton address: 129 Riccarton Road, Christchurch 8041 (H&M NZ Westfield Riccarton page)
- Future sale dates are not published on H&M NZ’s Christchurch pages (H&M NZ Homepage) (Mappaus directory)
- Third-party directories disagree on details: one lists 166 Cashel Street instead of 2/168 (Mappaus directory)
- In-store product availability per location is not listed on the official store pages (Mappaus directory)
- Apple Maps captured the Cashel Street store as “closed now” even while its listed hours matched the official schedule (Apple Maps listing)
- The store locator and the individual store pages show the same weekly hours for both Christchurch stores (H&M NZ Store Locator) (Apple Maps listing)
- Online orders are the documented route outside store hours, via hm.com/nz (H&M NZ Homepage)
- Sale items and promotions appear on the NZ homepage with delivery to Christchurch (H&M NZ Homepage)
Seven details, one pattern: the numbers worth trusting all come from H&M’s official NZ store pages (H&M NZ Store Locator), while third-party directories drift on the details.
| Detail | Value |
|---|---|
| Store name | H&M Christchurch |
| Number of locations in Christchurch | 2 |
| Cashel Street address | 2/168 Cashel Street, Christchurch Central City, 8011 |
| Riccarton address | Westfield Riccarton, 129 Riccarton Road, Christchurch 8041 |
| Cashel Street hours | Mon–Fri 09:00–18:00, Sat–Sun 10:00–18:00 |
| Riccarton phone | (03) 983 4500 |
| Online shopping URL | www.hm.com/nz/ (H&M NZ Homepage) |
The catch: because official pages are the source of record, any difference you spot on a mapping app or directory is most likely stale data, not a change at the store.
Where is H&M Christchurch located?
Christchurch’s two H&M stores sit on different retail circuits: one in the central city and one inside Westfield Riccarton. Both are official H&M NZ locations, and their details come from the chain’s own store pages.
Cashel Street Store
- Address: 2/168 Cashel Street, Christchurch Central City, 8011 (H&M NZ Cashel Street page)
- Opening hours: Monday–Friday 09:00–18:00, Saturday–Sunday 10:00–18:00
- Area note: listed as Christchurch Central City, not Riccarton
Cashel Street is the central-city option, and its hours stop at 18:00 every day of the week.
A Canterbury shopping directory also links H&M Christchurch to Christchurch Central and the 8011 postcode (Shoppings.co.nz directory).
Riccarton Store
- Address: Westfield Riccarton, 129 Riccarton Road, Christchurch 8041 (H&M NZ Westfield Riccarton page)
- Mall entrance: Rotherham Street side of Westfield Riccarton
- Phone: (03) 983 4500
Independent navigation agrees on the address: Waze also shows the Riccarton store at 129 Riccarton Road with the late Thursday and Friday opening until 21:00 (Waze Live Map).
If a directory or map app sends you to 166 Cashel Street, that listing is out of step with H&M’s official page, which says 2/168 (Mappaus directory). The store locator, not the directory, is the source of record for addresses and hours.
The pattern: when official and third-party listings disagree, the official store locator wins — directories are useful for discovery, not for addresses.
What are the opening hours for H&M Christchurch?
The two stores run different weekly clocks. Cashel Street keeps a steady 09:00–18:00 from Monday to Friday; Westfield Riccarton stretches to 21:00 on Thursday and Friday evenings.
Weekday hours
- Cashel Street, Monday–Friday: 09:00–18:00 (H&M NZ Cashel Street page)
- Riccarton, Monday–Wednesday: 09:00–18:00
- Riccarton, Thursday–Friday: 09:00–21:00 (H&M NZ Westfield Riccarton page)
Weekend hours
- Cashel Street, Saturday–Sunday: 10:00–18:00
- Riccarton, Saturday: 09:00–18:00
- Riccarton, Sunday: 10:00–18:00
The two stores match on Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, and Sunday; they diverge on Thursday, Friday, and Saturday.
The pattern: Cashel Street is the standard-hours anchor, while Riccarton is the store that bends the schedule — and the Thursday and Friday extension is its real advantage.
Weekly opening hours compared
Seven days, two different clocks: Riccarton adds late nights on Thursday and Friday while Cashel Street holds a 6 pm close all week (H&M NZ Store Locator).
| Day | Cashel Street | Westfield Riccarton |
|---|---|---|
| Monday | 09:00–18:00 | 09:00–18:00 |
| Tuesday | 09:00–18:00 | 09:00–18:00 |
| Wednesday | 09:00–18:00 | 09:00–18:00 |
| Thursday | 09:00–18:00 | 09:00–21:00 |
| Friday | 09:00–18:00 | 09:00–21:00 |
| Saturday | 10:00–18:00 | 09:00–18:00 |
| Sunday | 10:00–18:00 | 10:00–18:00 |
| Public holidays | Holiday hours are not published on the official pages; check the store locator before travelling (H&M NZ Store Locator) | |
Riccarton’s 21:00 close on Thursday and Friday is the biggest scheduling difference between the two stores — and the only option for an after-6 pm weekday visit to H&M in Christchurch.
The implication: if your free hours fall after 18:00 on a weekday, Cashel Street cannot serve you — Riccarton can, but only on Thursday and Friday.
How can I shop online from H&M in New Zealand?
H&M NZ runs a dedicated online store rather than redirecting shoppers to a global checkout. The URL to remember is hm.com/nz, which H&M positions as the New Zealand entry point for its full fashion range (H&M NZ Homepage).
H&M online shopping NZ for ladies
- Categories: women’s, men’s, children’s, and home ranges are sold through H&M NZ online
- Delivery: the NZ site ships orders to Christchurch addresses, including the central city and Riccarton areas
- Entry point: www.hm.com/nz/ (H&M NZ Homepage)
Shopping around? Our Stolen Girlfriends Club NZ guide covers another New Zealand fashion label, from brand origins to store footprint.
H&M Christchurch sale
- Online sale: the NZ homepage’s sale section lists discounted items across women’s, men’s, and home categories, with delivery to Christchurch (H&M NZ Homepage)
- Future sale dates: not published ahead of time on the official NZ pages
- In-store sale stock: per-store availability is not listed, so the Cashel Street and Riccarton stores are the places to check directly
For Christchurch shoppers, hm.com/nz works around both stores’ schedules — order after 6 pm or on Sunday and the website keeps running. The trade-off is that per-store availability is not published, so an online sale item may or may not be on the Cashel Street rack.
Why this matters: the online store turns H&M Christchurch from a two-location shop into a 24/7 option, but only for delivery — the physical stores remain the place for same-day purchases.
What’s confirmed and what’s unclear
The line between verified and uncertain is easy to draw here: H&M’s own NZ pages carry the confirmed details, while sale dates and per-store stock are left blank.
Confirmed facts
- Cashel Street address (2/168 Cashel Street) and weekly hours match between the store locator and the individual store page (H&M NZ Store Locator)
- Riccarton address (129 Riccarton Road) and the late Thursday and Friday hours are confirmed on the Westfield Riccarton store page (H&M NZ Westfield Riccarton page)
- Riccarton phone (03) 983 4500 is listed for the store
- Apple Maps shows the same Cashel Street hours as the official page (Apple Maps listing)
What’s unclear
- Future sale dates, which H&M NZ has not published in advance
- Specific product availability at either Christchurch store
- Whether the Apple Maps “closed now” status was a live closure or a stale entry (Apple Maps listing)
- Third-party directory accuracy: two directories list H&M Christchurch at 166 Cashel Street, while H&M’s official page says 2/168 (Shoppings.co.nz directory, Mappaus directory)
- The directory-listed phone 0800 406 700, which differs from the official store phone (03) 983 4500 (Mappaus directory)
The balance tips clearly: the address, hours, and phone are settled; everything beyond that — sale timing, stock, and directory quirks — is a case-by-case check. For a wider view of how New Zealand retailers are structured, our The Warehouse ownership guide covers a major local chain.
What the sources say
Three listings, three different voices: the official statement, an independent map, and a crowd-sourced navigator agree on the essentials and present them in very different packaging.
H&M offers fashion and quality at the best price.
H&M NZ (official homepage)
Cashel Street H&M — open 09:00–18:00 Monday to Friday, 10:00–18:00 Saturday and Sunday.
Apple Maps (independent listing service)
H&M Riccarton — 129 Riccarton Road, open until 21:00 on Thursday and Friday.
Waze Live Map (crowd-sourced navigation)
The takeaway: official and independent sources agree closely enough on the weekly schedule that the published hours are a reliable planning base.
The takeaway for Christchurch shoppers
Christchurch’s two H&M stores solve different problems. If you need a quick central-city stop, Cashel Street is the one; if you need an evening shop, only Westfield Riccarton stays open past 18:00 — and only on Thursday and Friday. For Christchurch shoppers, the decision is clear: match the store to your time of day — Cashel Street before 6 pm, Riccarton late on Thursday or Friday — or shop hm.com/nz and skip the trip entirely.
Frequently asked questions
Does H&M Christchurch offer click and collect?
H&M NZ does not list click and collect for either Christchurch store. The documented online route is home delivery through hm.com/nz, not store pickup (H&M NZ Homepage).
Can I return online purchases to the Cashel Street store?
The Christchurch store pages do not mention in-store returns for online orders. H&M NZ’s dedicated online store at hm.com/nz is where NZ-specific shopping terms are published, so that is the right starting point for returns (H&M NZ Homepage).
What payment methods are accepted at H&M Christchurch?
Payment details are not published on the two Christchurch store pages. For in-store payment options, the reliable move is to ask the store directly at (03) 983 4500 (H&M NZ Westfield Riccarton page).
Is there parking at H&M Cashel Street?
The H&M Cashel Street page does not list dedicated parking. The store is at 2/168 Cashel Street in Christchurch Central City, and the official page is the best reference for the exact location (H&M NZ Cashel Street page).
Does H&M Riccarton have a children’s section?
H&M NZ’s online range includes children’s clothing, and the Riccarton store operates inside Westfield Riccarton at 129 Riccarton Road. The store page does not publish a floor plan, but children’s wear is part of the NZ assortment (H&M NZ Westfield Riccarton page).
Are there any student discounts at H&M New Zealand?
The H&M NZ homepage and both Christchurch store pages do not list a student discount programme. Sale items on the NZ site are the published way to save, with delivery to Christchurch (H&M NZ Homepage).
What is the nearest bus stop to H&M Christchurch?
H&M’s store pages do not list bus stops. Use the official store addresses — 2/168 Cashel Street (H&M NZ Cashel Street page) and Westfield Riccarton at 129 Riccarton Road (H&M NZ Westfield Riccarton page) — as the destination reference for your route.
