WELCOME to South Africa’s youngest city!

From underground tours of some of the richest mines and even the deepest wine cellar (a mere 857 meters below the earth’s surface!) to the laid-back, scenic experience of the “city within a garden” and the ease of flow of a city famous for its clever use of traffic circles – Welkom is the city to visit. Having been appointed with city status on the 14th of February 1955, most points of interest in Welkom are as easily accessible as a 10 minute walk, you’ll want to explore Welkom thoroughly. The best place to start: Welkom Square Shopping Centre.

Home to 35 stores, the centre is situated in Central Welkom and offers an airy, modern setting for comfortable, sensational shopping. We boast national stores like Game, Mr Price Home, Fruit & Veg City and a medley of indulgent eateries that cater for every palate. What’s more, we house the local Virgin Active club, making Welkom Square the most convenient centre for locals and travelers alike.

We proudly offer ease of access to our centre, with restrooms located on both sides of the centre with disabled and baby change room facilities. We also have specially marked parking bays close to the walkways for our disabled visitors. Welkom Square Centre Management strives to cater for all our shopper’s needs and would like to hear from you should you have any comments or suggestions to share with us.

We look forward to welcoming you at Welkom Square!
