The mall has 3,000 parking spaces and approximately 18 million visitors annually. Its anchor tenants  are Stockmann, S-market, Lidl, Halonen, Tokmanni and H&M. The shopping centre is divided into four sections: "Pasaasi" (1984), "Pikku-Bulevardi", "Bulevardi" (1992), and "Piazza" (2001). It has five floors, with the shops and other commercial services mainly concentrated on the first and second floors. The other floors are reserved mainly for parking and office space. The shopping centre was built in three stages. The part now known as "Pasaasi" was completed in 1984 under the name "Itämarket" ('eastern market'), complete with the metro station and 41 shops. The new shopping centre proved successful, and an extension with 160 more  shops (now "Bulevardi" and "Pikku-Bulevardi") was built by September 1992. Another extension, known as "Piazza", was opened in 2001. The following year, the property was sold by its owner Sponda Oyj to the Dutch company Wereldhave NV. Wereldhave sold Itis to the Morgan Stanley Real Estate Investing and CC Real on 2019. Finnkino opened Finland's first commercial IMAX movie theatre in Itis on 30 November 2018.
