Bloemfontein City Hall, Municipal government building in Bloemfontein, South Africa.

The Bloemfontein City Hall features a double-storey sandstone structure with two towers flanking the main entrance on President Brand Street.

Constructed between 1934 and 1936 under architect Gordon Leith's direction, the building experienced a fire in 2017 that destroyed municipal archives.

The main council chamber, accessed through the eastern entrance, serves as the principal meeting space for local governance decisions.

The building contains multiple halls for events, with the main hall accommodating 400 guests for dinners and Clarendon Hall hosting up to 300 for concerts.

The western entrance of Clarendon Hall displays two granite bowls that mirror similar features found at the Viceroy's House in New Delhi, India.
