Asheville Outlets is a shopping mall located just off I-26 on Brevard Road (North Carolina Highway 191) in Asheville, North Carolina.

Biltmore Square Mall, the original shopping center on the site, was built in 1989 with Hess's, Proffitt's, and Belk as its anchor stores.
In March 1998, the mall management (along with other plaintiffs) did attempt to resist annexation of the property on which they reside into the city of Asheville. The attempt was unsuccessful.
In November 2006, Symphony Property Group and two local investment groups (collectively calling themselves Biltmore Eight, LLC) purchased the shopping center with the assistance of a third party loan. Thereafter the managing firm disclosed that the owner decided to expand the property in the first quarter of 2007 by an additional 83,000 sq ft (7,700 m2).
Cinebarre, a new concept in movie theaters and restaurants, was unveiled in the Biltmore Square Mall in 2007. Food, beer, and wine are served before and during the screening of films in the theater.
The mall closed on January 31, 2014, except for the anchors and Dollar Tree.Belk closed at the end of 2014.
The redeveloped shopping center opened on May 1, 2015 as an outlet mall called Asheville Outlets. Developed by New England Development, its new anchor stores are Dillard's & Field & Stream with other stores including Nike Factory Store, Under Armour, Coach, Abercrombie & Fitch Outlet, Cole Haan, Tommy Hilfiger, Bath & Body Works and close to 65 other stores. It is an open-air mall that features covered breezeways and a fire and water fountain.
