Community

As our centre and surrounding areas have continuously developed since opening, we continue to recognize and celebrate our growing diversity through annual events displaying local talent and business, cultural traditions, interactive activities and community spirit

CONNECTING OUR COMMUNITIES


Rouse Hill Town Centre is all about creating a well maintained neighbourhood destination to enjoy al fresco dining, great shopping and entertainment, as well as outdoor spaces and play areas for children.

Town Square and Market Square provides a focal points for the whole community, providing a place to meet friends and participate in activities, bringing people together in a friendly open-air environment.
