Broadway is in the centre of Ballymena Town and has always been a busy junction. With the Danske Bank and the Bank of Ireland still occupying the same buildings at Broadway it is easy to recognise this view from the end of Broughshane Street.

The Bandstand now sits at the centre of Broadway and lots of businesses are situated around it. These include the long standing ladies clothing shops McKillens Fashions and Cuddys department store which has now been joined by newer ventures like Bob and Berts coffee shop and other Ballymena family run businesses such as Outdoor Adventure and Angela’s Antiques. Such variety for a small area in our town centre – and we have spotted a new business moving in on nearby Church Street as Tilly Anna’s moves from Springwell Street to this central location.
