Great Mall station—previously known as Great Mall/Main Transit Center—is a light rail facility managed by the Santa Clara Valley Transportation Authority (VTA). Positioned at the intersection of Great Mall Parkway and Main Street in Milpitas, California, this elevated station serves the Orange Line. It features a pedestrian overpass connecting directly to the nearby Great Mall of the Bay Area, from which it derives its name.

Commissioned on June 24, 2004, as a segment of VTA's Tasman East light rail expansion, this station functioned as an important interchange point for both VTA light rail and bus services. The transit center ceased operations following the rerouting of most bus lines to the adjacent Milpitas station, which commenced service on December 28, 2019.
