The galleria will include almost 60 retailers ranging from classic contemporary fashion and urban youth style.

It is hoped to open around the time of the Carnival of Flowers or, if delayed, by Christmas.

Centre manager Shaine Beveridge said the stage one launch later this year would bring a range of exciting new stores.

"The new galleria malls will deliver an extension of Grand Central's existing fashion offering and will feature retail precincts," he said.

"In what will be exciting news to people in the region, many of these stores are new to the Toowoomba market."

A retail stores announcement will be made in the near future.
