About

Situated in the heart of the city, GWA is the destination for a unique shopping experience in Birmingham.

Elegant and over-flowing with Victorian charm, we are home to award-winning retailers and pride ourselves on giving visitors the best experiences and retailers.

Often described as the ‘home of hidden gems’, we create a climate for smaller retailers to thrive in this fast-paced competitive marketplace, as well as give shoppers a place to escape the monotony of the high street.
