With more than 70 specialty stores, Glendale City Centre has become a hub for the region.

First launching in 1996, the Centre quickly became a mecca for Lake Macquarie locals, who flocked to the open-air retail and lifestyle hub for all their daily needs.

Now home to a collective of major retailers, and more than 70 specialties stores dotted in between, including some new additions - Petbarn, Bonds Outlet, City Chic Outlet, Phat Chicken and Buckin’ Boots, Glendale City Centre continues to be Lake Macquarie’s go-to for all things food, retail and fun.

With over 2,300 free car parks and a flat, single-level design, the centre is one of the region’s easiest and most accessible shopping destinations, particularly for seniors, and shoppers with mobility needs.

Also featuring a refreshed parents’ rooms and a changing places facility, Glendale City Centre is perfectly catered for parents with prams, adding to the convenience factor.

In addition to the convenience, and growth in the retail shopping space, Glendale City Centre has grown to be much more than just a place to shop. 

Today it’s somewhere to eat, meet and relax, with cafés, casual dining, regular markets, and community events held throughout the year. 

As the Centre approaches its 30th year in business in March 2026, the focus continues to be on providing customers with a one-stop destination for locals and visitors alike - offering variety, convenience, and a welcoming environment.

Glendale City Centre - where the locals love to shop!
