The Bull Ring is a major commercial area of Birmingham, England. It has been an important feature of Birmingham since the Middle Ages, when its market was first held. It has been developed into a shopping centre twice; first in the 1960s, and then in the 2000s.
The current shopping centre was the busiest in the United Kingdom in 2004 with 36.5 million visitors.[4]](Bull Ring, Birmingham - Wikipedia) It houses one of only four Selfridges department stores, the fourth largest Debenhams outside of London and soon the first Forever 21 store in the UK. Consequently, the centre has been a huge success, attracting custom from all over the world, including New York.[5]](Bull Ring, Birmingham - Wikipedia) The Bull Ring project was a major step in the Big City Plan.
The New Birmingham Bull Ring Shopping Centre is a world apart from the old Bull Ring. It was built at a cost of £800 million and houses some of Britain’s best known retailers. Birmingham can already claim to be the **UK’s third most popular retail destination. **There are numorous retail parks already in existence such as the Merry Hill Complex and other smaller yet significant shopping parks. The Bull Ring is the largest retail regeneration project in Europe.
Selfridges are well known for having stores in London, New York and Paris but they have now opened their fourth store in the Bull Ring.
