Richmond Centre is a shopping mall in Richmond, British Columbia, Canada. Officially, it is located on No. 3 Road but it stretches as far west as Minoru Boulevard, and as far north as Westminster Highway. Richmond City Hall is immediately south of the mall.

By the number of stores, it is the largest mall in Richmond with 250 stores and services; it is the second largest in terms of area. Notable retailers include The Bay, Sears, Apple Store, Forever 21, The Gap, Shoppers Drug Mart, Tim Hortons, Starbucks, Sport Chek and Atmosphere. Part of the mall was once known as Richmond Square.

Famous Players has had a presence at Richmond Centre dating back to the mall's origins as Richmond Square, first opening the Richmond Square Twin Theatre (consisting of the 700-seat "Richmond" and the 478-seat "Islander") in 1968. The "Richmond" auditorium was divided down the middle in 1980 to make Richmond Square a triple theatre; the theatre was closed in 1990 and demolished to make way for parking for the expanded and renamed mall and was replaced by the now closed cinema complex that used to be at the west exit of the food court. Currently in construction is an expanded area of the mall, being made where the recent theater was.

Almost all public transit buses in Richmond, serviced by TransLink, have connections to the mall, with additional routes to Surrey, Burnaby, Downtown Vancouver, New Westminster, and Delta. In addition to being the main public transit transfer point in Richmond, the Canada Line's SkyTrain terminus station Richmond–Brighouse is located across from Shoppers Drug Mart exit on No. 3 Road.
