Established in 2012 Kibworth Antiques Centre is very proud to be Leicestershire's largest Antiques and Interiors centre. With upwards of 60 dealers showcasing their finds across 10,000 square foot the centre offers a real eclectic mix of treasures that you won't find on the high street. Whether you are looking for traditional antiques or retro/vintage items you will always find something to suit all budgets.
Split between our two buildings 'The Old Showroom' and 'The Den' you can wander uninterrupted through our many rooms of antiques, furniture and curios. We have often heard people describe it as 'A Real Aladdin's Cave' or 'A Trip Down Memory Lane' and our staff are always on hand to help you discover that special something or antique you have been searching for.

When we first visited the former BMW showroom in the spring of 2012 we knew immediately that it would make a fantastic space for an antiques centre and by the September we had collected the keys and our work started. We opened without a single dealer signed up and as we began to get it all together we knew within a couple of weeks that we had made the right decision.
The Old Showroom is deceptive in size as it opens out from its long glass frontage rather like Doctor Who's Tardis, providing a vast array of individual showcase rooms and includes a large upstairs with further dealers' display areas. In fact, The Old Showroom is home to around 40 very different dealers selling anything from traditional antiques to French furniture, glassware, ceramics and other collectables.
The entrance to The Den can be found to the rear The Old Showroom. The Den has a rather more industrial feel to the building as it was the old BMW workshop, and with its mezzanine floor is home to around 20 dealers. Some of our larger items are housed in The Den, with dealers offering a wide range of traditional English and European furniture and outdoor garden items too.
AJ's has grown and grown in popularity with visitors and locals alike, so that our now extensive menu includes delicious homemade soups, fresh paninis, sandwiches and other savoury delights for lunchtimes, alongside scrumptious home baked cakes, all accompanied by a refreshing pot of tea or delicious cup of 'Illy' coffee.
If you are interested in becoming part of Kibworth Antiques Centre, we are very happy to discuss our dealer options with you. We can offer cabinet space and floor space to dealers whose items best complement the Centre. If you are thinking about joining us please call us on 0116 279 3386 to arrange a meeting, where we can take a look around the Centre together to see if there is anything that might suit you.

Absolutely love going here, it's such a treasure trove, a real gem. There are a lot of affordable pieces, and I particularly love the jewellery ( having bought another 2 rings for my collection yesterday!).
The staff are very welcoming and knowledgeable, and there is a delightful coffee shop.
I would highly recommend a visit to the Kibworth Antiques Centre.

Loved browsing around a good selection of things at Kibworth Antique Centre today. To my delight I found a couple of things to buy at reasonable prices. Very friendly and helpful staff. Could also highly recommend the tea and cakes from the cafe there; which at present re covid-19 restrictions, are served outside but are delightful. I hope to be visiting again soon. From happy customer
