Civic, Christchurch, Government building in central Christchurch, New Zealand.

The Civic was a two-part building at 192–194 Manchester Street in central Christchurch, erected in 1900 and demolished in 2011. Its 1900 façade, designed by Clarkson & Ballantyne, was halved in 1983 when the southern theatre half came down. The northern part reopened in 1924 as municipal offices, with a main hall modelled on an American banking chamber where a horseshoe-shaped counter gave the public access to every council department.

The Agricultural and Industrial Hall, also called Canterbury Hall, was built in 1900 at 192–194 Manchester Street for Christchurch's 50th jubilee, with the foundation stone laid by Mayor William Reece on 14 March 1900. After a 1917 fire left only the façade, the northern part reopened in 1924 as Christchurch City Council offices, designed with a horseshoe-shaped public counter. The council sold the building in 1982, and it was demolished after the February 2011 earthquake.

The building's name changed with its uses: Canterbury Hall, then His Majesty's Theatre from 1906, and simply the Civic after 1986. In its last decades it was a bar and live music venue, hosting Salmonella Dub, The Black Keys, Shapeshifter, Elemeno P and Anika Moa, and nighttime shows of the annual buskers festival. Music events stopped in 2009.

The building stood at 192–194 Manchester Street, on the block bounded by Gloucester and Worcester Streets and Latimer Square. Its southern half, the Civic Theatre, was demolished in 1983, halving the 1900 façade. The site is now empty: nothing remains to visit, and the structure was removed in 2011 after the February earthquake brought down much of the façade into the street.

After the February 2011 earthquake, a time capsule was found in the ruined building. Mayor Bob Parker opened it on 12 April 2011, alongside two capsules from the plinth of the toppled Godley Statue. The Civic's capsule held newspapers, a photo book and the council's balance sheet and statements for the year ended 31 March 1921.
