Haymarket Shopping Centre

The Haymarket Shopping Centre is a shopping centre in the city centre of Leicester, England. It was opened on 4 June 1973[2] as part of the Haymarket Centre and was the country's second shopping centre after the Bull Ring, Birmingham.[3] It is located east of and adjacent to the Clock Tower.[4]

The Haymarket Shopping Centre has around 65 outlets and shares the Haymarket Centre with a bus station, a two-stage theatre, and a Travelodge hotel in the former Haymarket House.

The Haymarket Centre previously featured two nightclubs (located either side of the clock tower entrance), Dino's restaurant (adjacent to the theatre entrance) and two enclosed foot bridges (one crossing Charles Street in to Kildare Street and the other crossing Humberstone Gate linking to Lewis's department store).

During 2021 Leicester City Council purchased the shopping centre for £9.9million [5]
