Market Square shopping centre is located in Geelong, Victoria, Australia. The shopping centre was named after the original Market Square town square of Geelong on which the shopping centre is constructed.

The current shopping centre was developed in 1985 and officially opened by Victorian Premier John Cain. Market Square contains numerous speciality stores such as Sanity, Dymocks and Harris Scarfe. In 2006, an extension into the former Safeway section of the centre saw other large chains move in, including the return of JB Hi-Fi to Geelong, and the city's first EB Games.
