Miranda Fair was originally opened in 1964 and was purchased by Westfield in 1969. There have been two major renovations and extensions since then, once in 1971 and again in 1994 giving it 107,000 m² of retail space. In both instances it was the largest shopping centre in Australia at the time the extensions were completed. For several years it was widely known as the largest shopping centre in the southern hemisphere.^{[citation needed]} Since these openings, other shopping centres have been built and expanded, including long-time rival Westfield Parramatta, now making it the 8th largest in Australia and the 2nd largest in Sydney.

Miranda Fair is easily distinguishable at night as it has a large eight sided star on its rooftop. It once revolved, however for the past twenty years it has remained stationary. This star is noted on surveying maps and can be used as a point of reference when navigating distances.

There are several large car parking areas around the complex with numerous. Rail access is provided by Miranda railway station on the Illawarra railway line immediately adjacent, making it easily accessible from southern and eastern suburbs of Sydney.

Cronulla and Caringbah are serviced by BusLink and Caringbah Bus Service buses. Sutherland, Sylvania and Hurstville are serviced by Veolia NSW services.
