Great Western Arcade

Shopping in Birmingham is a great day out for all the family, with plenty of shops around the city there’s plenty to look around. Great Western Arcade is located in the heart of Birmingham city centre, and is the hub of thriving independent, unique and award-winning retail in the city. GWA provides you with a safe shopping experience.

The Grade II listed Arcade was built by the Great Western Company in 1876-77 to span a tunnel for the railway line between Moor St and Snow Hill stations. Elegant and over-flowing with Victorian charm, they are home to award-winning retailers and pride themselves on giving visitors the best experiences and retailers.

They employ a number of overt security measures, but also operate a number of unseen, covert security measures for your protection whilst shopping.
