Bullring & Grand Central Birmingham

Details

The iconic Bullring Bull, a six-tonne bronze behemoth, guards the entrance to Bullring & Grand Central, a premier shopping and leisure destination in the heart of Birmingham that attracts over 40 million visitors annually. This contemporary landmark, which saw a £500 million transformation and reopening in 2003, seamlessly blends centuries of market history with modern architectural marvels like the Selfridges store, famed for its 15,000 shimmering aluminium discs inspired by a Paco Rabanne dress. With roots stretching back to a 12th-century market, the area has evolved significantly from its namesake, the 16th-century practice of bull-baiting, into one of the UK's largest city-centre shopping hubs when combined with Grand Central. It’s a place where history and Brummie spirit converge, offering a vibrant atmosphere for all who visit.

Boasting over 150 stores and more than 40 restaurants and cafes, Bullring & Grand Central offers an unparalleled retail experience. Shoppers can explore a vast array of high-street favourites such as Zara and Next, alongside designer brands in Selfridges, and unique finds in various independent boutiques. Connected via LinkStreet, Bullring and Grand Central together house over 240 retail outlets, including one of the largest John Lewis stores at Grand Central. Beyond shopping, visitors can indulge in diverse culinary delights, from Lebanese cuisine at Comptoir Libanais to Thai dishes on Chaophraya's terrace, or grab a quick bite at places like Five Guys and Wagamama. The centre also hosts a variety of entertainment and cultural events, ensuring there’s always something new to discover.
