Party is over: Ikea says illegal teenage sleepovers must end

Ikea is urging teenagers to stop creeping into its stores and having illegal sleepovers. About 10 "non-sponsored sleepovers" have been logged across the world by the Swedish flat-pack furniture giant this year. “We appreciate that people are interested in Ikea and want to create fun experiences,” an IKEA UK spokesperson told the BBC. “However, the safety and security of our co-workers and customers is our highest priority and that’s why we do not allow sleepovers in our stores.”
