At this time, all European Apple Stores (see UK, FR, GER...) are closed with the usual "we'll be back soon" sticker.
No products are expected to be announced today so it's maybe a maintenance downtime.
We'll be updating this article so as to keep you informed.
UPDATE: The downtime was probably due to a maintenance. The stores have re-opened and are no apparent changes.
