Mississauga Civic Centre, Municipal government complex in Mississauga, Canada.

Mississauga Civic Centre is a 37,280-square-metre postmodern complex completed in 1987 by Jones and Kirkland, standing 92 metres tall in the City Centre near Square One. Its design draws on the farmsteads once spread across Mississauga and on traditional city centres, with a prominent clock tower. Inside, a four-storey Great Hall has marble walls and a glass pyramid atrium, and the cylindrical structure holds the council chambers.

The Civic Centre is the third seat of local government in Mississauga. Its design by Jones and Kirkland won a September 1982 competition judged by a panel that included architect James Stirling, chosen from 246 entries from seven provinces. The Duke and Duchess of York attended the July 1987 opening. The firm was founded by UK architect Edward Jones and US partner Richard Kirkland.

The cylindrical structure housing the Mississauga City Council chambers is topped by a clock tower, a feature borrowed from traditional city centres. On the second floor, the Civic Wedding chapel has a stained glass window designed and built by Gundar Robez Studio. The Great Hall, a four-storey space with marble walls and a glass pyramid atrium, hosts public events.

The complex sits near major shopping areas, making it easy to find and fit into a day of exploring the city. Parking is available on-site, and the building is designed to be accessible, so visitors with different needs can move through the spaces comfortably.

A scaled replica of the Civic Centre stands in Mississauga Park in Kariya, Aichi, Japan, the Ontario city's twin town. The full-size building drew 246 entries from seven provinces in the 1982 competition, judged by a panel that included architect James Stirling. Hockey commentator Don Cherry said the finished hall looked more like a penitentiary than a city hall.
