Market Square is proud of its history dating back to 1837.
Market Square’s origins began as eight acres (2.9 hectares) of land, reserved by Governor Sir George Gipps as a town square during the initial surveying of Geelong.
Named soon after by local townspeople for its suitability as a produce market, Market Square has always been a popular meeting place in the heart of Geelong CBD.
Market Square Shopping Centre, as we know it today, was built from 1984 to 1985 with many of its customers today loyal customers from the day it officially opened on December 3, 1985.
As a way of recognising and celebrating many of our loyal customers, Market Square introduced the Experience with us campaign.
Providing freebies for over 50s every Tuesday, it aims to celebrate the experience and thank our over 50-year-old customers who regularly shop at Market Square.
Freebies for over 50s change weekly, with old favourites repeated and new offers provided regularly, so there is something of interest to all people.
