Centenary Square is one of Birmingham’s newest public squares. It is a popular meeting place and walkway between Broad Street and the canal area and those passing on foot to the city centre. Many live concerts and events take place in the square including New Year Celebrations. The paving stones and decorative railings were designed by Tess Jaray.

You can take a pleasant walk from Broad Street and the waterside canal area by the NIA, walk indoors through the International Convention Centre with its modern and tasteful interior and out into Centenary Square. From Centenary Square head for the Library and walk through the arcade into Chamberlain Square, Victoria Square and the city centre.

There are a number of examples of public art and buildings in the square such as the Spirit of Enterprise, the Torch, Baskerville House and the Hall of Memory. The square was completed in 1991 and will be home to the stunning new City Library scheduled to open in 2013.

With a licensed area covering over 2300 Sq metres, Centenary Square is a popular choice for major outdoor events, attracting audiences from across the city, giving businesses around the region a great return on sponsorship investment.
