Canberra Centre

The Canberra Centre sits on Bunda Street in the heart of Canberra's Civic, in the central city precinct. The capital's premier shopping centre, it's a comprehensive retail-and-lifestyle destination — bringing together major department stores, hundreds of specialty shops, supermarkets, an excellent dining precinct and services across a large, central complex right in the heart of the city.

The appeal is that combination of an extensive range of retailers, services and dining and an unbeatable central Civic location, ideal for a full day of shopping, running errands, grabbing a bite or a coffee. As the main centre in the city, it offers just about everything in one spot, making it a genuine go-to for Canberra and a natural part of any trip into the city centre.

With a 4.3 rating from more than 10,200 reviews, it's clearly a hugely used part of the city. The retailers, dining, services, opening hours and any events vary, so it's worth checking current details if you're after a specific store or brand — though for a day of shopping, a bite or some errands in the heart of the city, you can simply head to the Canberra Centre.
