Why go

New Street, High Street and Corporation Street provide the main street-shopping orientation around the centre.

What to look for

  • New Street, High Street and Corporation Street for central orientation.
  • The Bullring area's historic connection with market trading.
  • Jewellery Quarter workshops and specialist jewellery retailers.

Useful to know

  • Check individual market opening days before setting out for the Bullring area.
