10 things Liverpool locals want you to know before you visit

Sep 3, 2022 • 5 min read

Liverpool finds something to celebrate every night of the week – here's what to know before you visit this party-happy city © sturti / Getty Images

Wondering what’s so good about Liverpool ? As a former resident of this characterful city, I can say wholeheartedly that it’s one of the warmest, most exhilarating locations in northern England .

It’s a place where party animals, history lovers and shopaholics all live in harmony, where uniqueness is always celebrated and where civic pride isn’t mere rhetoric. 

Liverpool's compact, attraction-filled center makes it an easy place to explore. The city is an ever-popular destination, so a little bit of pre-planning will go a long way. Here are a few things to know before going to Liverpool. 

Two days gives you a taste of Liverpool, and four gives you the full works

Liverpool’s easy access from cities around England via train makes it an excellent weekend destination. A couple of days is ideal if you want to fit in a museum, soak up the grandeur of the Georgian Quarter and sample the city’s buzzing nightlife. 

If you really want to do the city justice, staying for four or five days is a better bet. This amount of time lets you explore more of Liverpool's top neighborhoods and even throw in a day trip or two . Why not hop across the Mersey River on the ferry to New Brighton where you’ll find one of Liverpool’s best beaches ? 

Farther afield, the National Trust's  Speke Hall near John Lennon Airport is a Tudor masterpiece, while historic Chester – with its Roman-era walls – is only 40 minutes away by train.

Avoid visiting on game days

Liverpool has two professional soccer teams (Liverpool FC and Everton), meaning the city hosts twice as many home games. On match days, footie fans descend on the city in droves and make everything from public transport to pubs a whole lot busier. 

Game days can also push the price of accommodations up, so it’s always worth booking in advance. Unless you’re joining the hordes heading to Anfield or Everton stadiums, you may want to plan your trip for another time altogether. 

Book your museum slots in advance

Visiting museums – whether that’s the futuristic Museum of Liverpool or the treasure-packed World Museum – is easily one of the best free things to do in Liverpool . While most are free to visit, you might come across temporary or touring exhibits that require paid tickets. For these, it’s a good idea to pre-book, especially on weekends or during the school holidays. 

Want to learn more about Liverpool’s famous Fab Four ? The award-winning Beatles Story attraction at the Royal Albert Dock is essential viewing, and booking tickets in advance is always worthwhile. 

The same goes for certain seasonal events. For example, Liverpool Cathedral often hosts fascinating art installations in its impressive interiors. They’re usually free (donations welcome), but you may still want to reserve a time slot online beforehand.  

Prepare to party – or keep your distance on weekends

Liverpool is a hotspot for bachelor and bachelorette parties, with groups of guys and tiara-wearing ladies traveling from far and wide to sample its eclectic nightlife scene. 

While weekends take center stage thanks to seemingly endless club events and music gigs, you’ll still find a lively atmosphere during the week. This is partly down to the city’s large student population and partly the locals’ fondness for a good time, whatever the day or occasion. 

Hoping for a quieter Friday or Saturday evening? Steer clear of neighborhoods like Ropewalks (home to the riotous Concert Square) and the stretch of Irish pubs, karaoke venues and music venues – including the world-famous Cavern Club – along Mathew Street. 

Lark Lane near Sefton Park and the Royal Albert Docks both offer a more chilled evening out. You could also combine tasty food with well-made cocktails at indoor markets like the Baltic Market or Duke Street Market.

Don’t be surprised if a stranger strikes up a conversation

Unlike some larger UK cities (I’m looking at you, London), Liverpool’s locals are always welcoming to tourists and typically happy to converse, whether you’re waiting for a bus or grabbing a drink at a bar. 

Struggling to understand the iconic, albeit thick, Scouse accent? It happens to the best of us (and it’s nothing to be ashamed of). Just politely ask the person you’re chatting with to repeat themselves. They’re unlikely to be offended.

Never mock the Scouse accent

Scousers are a friendly bunch. Nevertheless, a few things are considered bad etiquette in Liverpool. 

A mash-up of Irish, Welsh and Lancashire inflections has helped create the masterpiece that is the Scouse accent. While you’ll enjoy hearing snippets of it as you wander around the city, never try to copy it. Why? You’ll likely fail, plus it’s simply bad manners. 

Scousers love getting dressed up

Jeans and a nice top won’t normally cut it when it comes to a night out in Liverpool. Locals make a mammoth effort to dress up, no matter the occasion, so don’t be surprised if you spot a few ladies going about their business in the daytime with curlers in their hair. 

That’s not to say you can’t go for a more casual dress code. Many venues, including those in the Baltic Triangle, have a laid-back vibe where anything from distressed denim to sparkling sequins goes. 

Stay in a group and drink responsibly

It’s easy to get caught up in Liverpool’s lively party culture. While you’re at liberty to drink what and however much you like, be aware of your limits. Heading to the city for a big night out? Go with a friend or in a group, and keep an eye on your drinks at all times because spiking isn’t uncommon. 

Stick to the city center or waterfront after dark

In general, Liverpool is safe. Nevertheless, like any big city, it’s best to be aware of your surroundings at night or when you're alone. Stick to busier areas, such as the city center and Albert Dock, where help is always at hand. Take a taxi – don’t walk – if you’re venturing farther afield in the dark. 

Is Liverpool safe for the LGBTIQ+ community?

Liverpudlians’ natural warmth and friendliness extends to the LGBTIQ+ community. The city has its own Pride Quarter (in and around Stanley Street) where you’ll find myriad colorful and inclusive bars and clubs.

Much better, not their fault but my plane was so delayed causing me to have to take this airline rather than my earlier connecting flight

I upgraded to economy plus and it’s so worth the price. The crew is exceptional and the food is pretty decent. I would definitely fly with them again.

They lost my luggage. Tromso in winter without warm clothes is not fun.

The flight was on time and loading was fine. I really disliked that all drinks other than coffee or tea had a cost. Deplaning was also an issue as people did not wait for those in front of them to get out before they pushed forward

Flight was delayed 3 hours. Pilot cancelled flight under 4 people volunteered to change their seats to economy from business class.

I couldn’t make it to the airport for my original flight due to bad weather; roads were shut down, buses and trains were closed. Since the plane wasn’t cancelled, I still had to pay $720 to change my ticket.

Overall, this flight team did a fantastic job. They came often with the water, coffee and tea. There was no meal choice in coach, but the lasagna lunch was decent. The sandwich snack just before landing was tasty. The baggage bins were large, so no trouble holding carry on luggage.

My seat was not the one I paid for, the crew was very curt, and the cabin was extremely warm.

The flight was cancelled early on and messed up the whole vacation and hard to get a refund from Kayak as they owned the ticket and of course they did not believe that SAS cancelled the ticket. Definite bad side to third party. SAS had rescheduled but overlapped the connecting flights. That did not work. Flight was cancelled long ago but Kayak still has it. Like it was taken? Bad IT ? Or all assumptions and no follow up which is the whole IT world. It needs to wake up and be more efficient. Especially as the world is going, there will be no freedom to do anything. And we will be living like the Middle Ages. Yeah, go read up on that while you still can.

Boarding the plane outside in the rain was a pain. Very safe flight

Perfect timing, perfect departure, lovely crew on the ground and in the air.

Good flight. Take off a little late but make up the time

Everything’s went straight forward, no issues, good service and friendly crew

Left on time and arrived on time both ways, thank you

The flight was 45 mins delayed but the crew provided water and necessities like tissues

Cheap flights as you expect with Ryanair. I would take cheaper flights over entertainment and comfort for short haul travel. Main issue is usually delays at airports. In this case we landed roughly 2hr30 later than planned due to earlier delays with the plane. Not the worst I imagine

We each paid for 10kg checked in luggage. Flying out there were no issues sharing one case (20kg). Not so coming back. Additional £48 charge and unable to provide an explanation of why it was ok on one journey but not the other, or indeed what material difference it makes between 2x10kg cases vs 1x20kg case. Scam, and appalling from Ryanair.

Easy process and good flight experience The food good be better

I didn't like. The seats and the floor were very dirty and it is not the first time

Unfortunately didn't realise how far away Frankfurt Hahn airport is from Frankfurt the city. Outbound flight was delayed by 2.5 hours and no communication at airport, just a whisper emknating through the packed crowd ready to board at the gate as someone read out an email they had received. All rather poor and pathetic

The Perfect Weekend in Liverpool Itinerary

Planning 2 or 3 days or a weekend in Liverpool is an excellent way to see what this lively Northern English metropolis has to offer in just a short period of time.

Once Britain and its Empire’s second most influential port, Liverpool endured economic decline after losing its prominent position and gained notoriety in the early ’80s for a summer of riots. Urban renewal projects have sculpted a new Liverpool – a Liverpool that has moved away from a maritime-based industry and towards creativity and a flourishing arts scene.

Destinations and quite often, the people who live in them, can leave an imprint on the traveller and a long-lasting fondness. As a Scouser living in London once said to me, visit Liverpool and “talk to people you’ll think have always been friends.”

How Many Days in Liverpool?

Before jumping into all of the great things to do in Liverpool, you’re likely wondering how many days to spend in Liverpool in order to do this city justice. Fortunately, it’s not all that much.

With a compact city centre and top sites located quite close to each other, you really only need 2 days in Liverpool in order to get a good feel for the city.

During this time, you will be able to take in the top tourist attractions and even have time to enjoy some live music or indulge in the city’s up-and-coming food scene.

However, if you have more time, then it’s not a bad idea to spend 3 days exploring the city if you want to dig a bit deeper. You’ll be able to take in a few more museums, explore some of the city’s neighbourhoods or even go on a day trip to somewhere like Chester.

When to Visit Liverpool

England , in the main, is not a holiday destination that relies on its weather. This applies to the North West in particular. There’s a fair chance of rain all year round, with the summer months probably your best bet at avoiding it.

This coincides with higher average temperatures which are likely to be in and around the 20-degree mark (roughly low 70s in Fahrenheit). August sees the most significant intake of visitors.

The English football season runs for nine months from August through to May, and this may impact one’s decision to visit Liverpool at particular times. Expect a busier city centre and a clamour for hotel rooms if Liverpool FC and to a lesser extent, the city’s other Premier League team, Everton, are playing at home.

For those considering a stadium tour, it may be necessary to see which packages still run on match days. This could include midweek for cup and European games, so it’s probably a good idea to check the fixture list before making plans. Liverpool FC’s stadium, Anfield, becomes a music venue in the summer, so again, may affect those who plan to visit.

A thriving music scene makes Liverpool an ideal host for festivals. Sound City, in Liverpool’s Baltic Triangle, is a three-day independent, new music festival and conference which runs in May.

This is followed by the Liverpool International Music Festival which brings together household names and new acts for a couple of days in July. To top it off, International Beatleweek runs in August — a week-long tribute and celebration to Liverpool’s most successful music export, The Beatles.

Getting To & Around Liverpool

Whether it’s by road, rail, air, or sea, one will find a way of getting to and from Liverpool that shouldn’t be too convoluted.

The north-south running M6 is less than an hour away, with tributary motorways acting as the main routes into the city when driving or arriving by coach.

Rail travellers from outside Merseyside and the North West will disembark at Liverpool Lime Street, which is conveniently centrally located. If you’re travelling within Merseyside, your hub will likely be Liverpool Central station which, despite the name, is a smaller station than Lime Street.  View bus & train timetables here .

Liverpool has its own airport, named after John Lennon. Onward transport to the city should be fairly straightforward with either a direct bus, a train from Liverpool South Parkway (which can be accessed via a shuttle from the airport), or taxi.

If coming from outside of Europe, then Manchester Airport, named after Manchester , could be a suitable arrival point owing to the fact that trains and coaches can get to Liverpool in around an hour, or 45 minutes if travelling by car. Because of their proximity, this can also mean you don’t need to choose between visiting Manchester or Liverpool .

With it being a port city, you’d expect to be able to arrive by sea, which is possible although limited with routes to and from Belfast, Dublin and the Isle of Man. Cruise ships do stop on the waterfront also. The famous ‘ Ferry Cross The Mersey ‘ connects Liverpool’s pier to the Wirral and is considered a tourist attraction just as much as a form of public transport. They also offer a hop-on, hop-off cruise.

Once in Liverpool, exploring what the city has to offer can be achieved in a number of ways. Merseyrail runs the metro system and provides a variety of passes and tickets for individuals and families alike. The integrated ‘Plusbus’ system allows users to combine metro and bus travel on one ticket. 

Reasonably priced taxis are abundant, and bike hire is an alternative and supported by the availability of city cycle route maps and parking at major venues. They can also be taken on public transport, should the legs get weary.

The good news for those who like to see a place on foot is that Liverpool is suitably sized for such an endeavour. Many attractions are within, what I would call at least, a reasonable walking time. The waterfront and docks, for example, are only about 20 minutes or so from Lime Street Station.

Weekend in Liverpool Itinerary

Now, what does one or should one do in this city? Well, naturally you’ll have your own interests and therefore ideas as to how you’d like to spend your 48 hours in Liverpool.

This two-day itinerary, however, should cover some of the things the city — and, to an extent, Merseyside in general — is best known for, including things that will leave you having had a hit of history, a prime cut of culture, and maybe even a pan of scouse. 

Day 1 – City Centre Highlights

The royal albert dock.

The docks on the River Mersey are what made the city it is today, so they are the ideal place to start one’s time in Liverpool. Opened in 1846, the Albert Dock allowed the rapid turnaround of ships and their cargo, making Liverpool one of the greatest maritime cities in the world. After World War II, the area underwent a steady decline, was silted and eventually abandoned.

Investment in the 1980s breathed new life into the dock — UNESCO World Heritage Status was achieved with cargo and merchant ships replaced with private moorings, museums, exhibitions, shops and restaurants.

One could probably spend the day here but could well end up with information overload or ‘exhibit sickness,’ the cure for which is a meal, drink and a walk. Speaking of food, if you decide not to eat in one of the museums or galleries, then numerous restaurants are dotted on and around the dock.

Thai, Italian, Cuban, Catalan and British cuisine, amongst others, can all be sampled and there’s even a pirate-themed pub — the seafaring type as opposed to the software variety.

With so much to see or do, it’ll be a case of mixing and matching what suits. And anyway, most of it’s free, so you can always come back. 

Merseyside Maritime Museum

For those wanting to discover more about the city’s nautical past, then the Merseyside Maritime Museum should be the first port of call. Discover in-depth how Liverpool’s fate as a city ran parallel with that of the docks.

All manner of artefacts, objects and models, alongside actual-sized ships tell the story of the port and its importance for trade and the subsequent impact on the lives of those connected to it, which at its height, would have been pretty much everyone. There’s an exhibition dedicated to the RMS Titanic, with items from the sunken cruise liner washed, cleaned and on display. 

Food-wise, there’s an in-house, fine dining restaurant which overlooks the waterfront, and also a café should one need just a quick break. Entry to the museum is free.

The International Slavery Museum

Having acquainted oneself with the city’s maritime exploits, the next step is to delve further into one particular aspect of its history. Within the Merseyside Maritime Museum stands the International Slavery Museum . The economic activity surrounding the transatlantic slave trade once aided Liverpool’s growth and prosperity, and so the museum is aptly located. 

Several themes coalesce. One can learn about West African culture and traditions, how slavery as a trade functioned and the harrowing conditions people were forced to endure in the name of commerce.

The narrative continues into how black culture has influenced Western society since the trade’s abolition and then into the modern era, where slavery and discrimination are still prevalent. 

This is a place that educates and is a place to contemplate- something perhaps rare during a weekend city break.     

Tate Liverpool

Time for some art. Time for some Tate. Akin to its namesake in London and St Ives in Cornwall , Tate Liverpool brings together collections of modern pieces. As one may expect from an art gallery, it combines permanent exhibitions from artists like Lowry, with those of a more temporary nature, some of which have previously featured the works of Warhol, Monet and Picasso.

Galleries rarely just offer the visitor a passive experience, and Tate Liverpool is no different. That’s still possible if that’s what you’re happy doing, but additionally, there are opportunities to take in a talk or get more hands-on and creative in a practical workshop. 

Oh, and again it’s free, although there may be a fee for major exhibitions. 

The Beatles Story

The Royal Albert Dock is also a good place for Beatles fans to indulge a little before heading off to see some of the landmarks they made famous through song. “What’s a regenerated dock have to do with one of the world’s best-known bands?” you may be saying.

Well, it’s where one will find ‘The Beatles Story,’ the plot being the journey of the Fab Four on their road to stardom. It’s won awards so it should be good. 

As one might expect, there’s a mountain of memorabilia to get through with original instruments and song lyrics on display. They’ve even put together a replica Cavern Club, although you could just go and see the real one which isn’t too far away.

Unfortunately, this one isn’t free but you can purchase skip-the-line tickets in advance to avoid any potential queues.

Liverpool Waterfront

Sea air, sights and seagulls. A walk along the waterfront to or from (or to and from if you fancy it) the Albert Dock is a fine way to view some of Liverpool’s most famous buildings. Take it at your own pace- there are plenty of eateries and watering holes along the way. 

The Cunard Building, the Port of Liverpool Building and the Royal Liver Building make up what are called the ‘Three Graces.’ The Royal Liver Building is the city’s most recognised landmark. Grade I-listed, its towers act as perches for the Liver Birds, the city’s emblem.

‘Bella’ and ‘Bertie’ are the subject of numerous local legends. It’s said if they ever flew away, Liverpool will be no more. Something tells me it’s unlikely, after all, inanimate objects can’t fly. 

For the first time, the public can now access the building with a new ‘Royal Liver Building 360’ tour with views of Liverpool and/or the Mersey in every one of the 360 degrees available.

Opposite lies Pier Head which is where one will catch the ‘ferry cross the Mersey’. While waiting, take a photo next to The Beatles Statue. Or sit on a bench and admire the view, up to you.

The Baltic Triangle

Just behind the waterfront lies a former industrial area known as the Baltic Triangle, although it could as easily be called the ‘creative quarter.’ Taking its name from formerly strong industrial ties to Scandinavian and Baltic countries , warehouses and disused buildings have been refurbished and recycled with new inhabitants turning their hand to innovative start-up businesses, quirky cafés, bars and clubs. 

The Baltic Market teems with outlets selling street food made by locals and has proven very popular since its inception in 2017. 

If one wants to try a native dish though, then in Liverpool that’ll be ‘Scouse’ which typically contains a form of meat, potatoes, vegetables and herbs. It’s usually served with crusty bread and/or red cabbage, with some places offering a vegetarian/vegan version. 

Day Two – Anfield, Sefton Park, Beatles Tour & More

With one day in Liverpool over, here are some ideas to while away day two…

Liverpool FC Stadium Tour

As match tickets are often hard to come by, fans of football — and Liverpool FC especially — can still get inside and explore Anfield as part of a tour. Although one may not get to replicate the atmosphere only a live game can provide, the tour still has much to offer.

The club has different packages to choose from, ranging from the basic to a question-and-answer session with a former Liverpool player. There is a tour that does run on match days although you won’t get to see a game or the players’ changing rooms. Visitors can also pre-purchase tickets .

Highlights for Liverpool fans are everywhere, although I expect touching the ‘This is Anfield’ sign and taking a few photos of all of the European Cups will rank quite highly. Tickets also allow access to the club’s interactive museum. 

As an alternative, Everton’s ground lies just across Stanley Park from Anfield, which is the closest they seem to get to the reds these days. Goodison Park is very much a ‘classic’ British football stadium, tours of which and a ‘legends’ experience can be purchased. 

Sefton Park

Sefton Park can accommodate those fancying a casual walk and a bit of greenery, or a more deliberate visit if seeking some exotic plant life.   Open almost all year round, it plays host to both the Liverpool International Music and Food and Drink Festivals.

With over 200 acres to enjoy, it’s not just a bit of grass, a few trees and a swing. There are statues, a boating lake and arguably the glass-panelled jewel in the crown, the Sefton Park Palm House. Built in 1896 and now fully restored, this beautiful building houses the Liverpool Botanical Collection featuring plants from 5 continents and over 20 different types of palm.

Of course, there has to be something Beatles-related in Sefton Park. I mean, this is Liverpool after all. Here it’s the Victorian-style bandstand, which supposedly provided the inspiration for the song Sgt Pepper’s Lonely Hearts Club Band.

The Williamson Tunnels

Perhaps less common on a trip to Liverpool are the Williamson Tunnels. Named after Joseph Williamson, known for being an eccentric businessman and philanthropist, the tunnels are an underground network, some 10 to 50 feet deep, in the Edge Hill area of Liverpool.

Built in the 19th century, nobody to this day quite knows why they were constructed or the actual size of the area they cover. 

Access is via the Williamson Tunnels Heritage Centre , and one can explore them on a 40-minute guided tour. Tickets can be pre-booked online.  

The Beatles Tour

Even a casual admirer of The Beatles may have some interest in seeing the areas they felt compelled to write and sing about. The most famous of these are Penny Lane and Strawberry Fields, which can be visited as part of this tour but are equally reachable on foot.

There’s also of course the Cavern Club, which is still very much integral to Liverpool’s music scene almost 60 years after it played host to The Beatles’ debut gig. You also have the option of combining a city tour with some Beatles history if you’re short on time during.

Have More Time?

That’s two days in Liverpool sufficiently dealt with, but if staying for longer, then there’s still much to occupy one’s time. If the Albert Dock’s museum offerings have been exhausted, then there’s the Museum of Liverpool just off Pier Head which could be combined with the walk along the waterfront.

Or pop across to the Wirral on the ferry, for the U-boat story with its very own segmented U-boat, U-534, on display. Another free attraction, The World Museum, takes on the task of telling the story of the history of Earth, but it won’t take a few billion years to get through it all.

Georgian townhouses with a cathedral at each end (the Anglican Cathedral being Britain’s biggest) constitute the Georgian Quarter in the Canning area of Liverpool. Hope Street is the focal point and a previous winner of the Academy of Urbanism’s ‘Best Street’ award. Fine dining and bistros are to be enjoyed in luxurious surroundings.

Further afield (but not that much further as it’s still a stop on Liverpool regional rail network) is the city of Chester. Walk the walls and discover the history of this once Roman settlement. 

Where to Stay in Liverpool

The Dolby Hotel – A mid-range hotel overlooking the Mersey, this is a great option for a place to stay in Liverpool. Centrally located within easy walking distance of some of the city’s best attractions, there are a range of clean and comfortable rooms available and there is also a hearty breakfast included in the room rate.

Titanic Hotel Liverpool – This high-end hotel is a fantastic choice if your budget allows for it. Located close to all of Liverpool’s main attractions and sites, this hotel has numerous amenities including an on-site spa and fitness centre, and a restaurant. There are a range of rooms available.

Kabannas Liverpool – This hostel is a great option for both budget and solo travellers alike. It is centrally located near all of Liverpool’s best attractions, there are both dorm and private rooms available, clean facilities, and common areas to make meeting other travellers easy.

Liverpool travel guide

Liverpool tourism | liverpool guide, you're going to love liverpool.

A thriving port, a party city, and a cultural phenomenon, modern Liverpool buzzes with cultural energy and influences from all over the world.

Recent years have seen the city become England's second most important art hub, after the opening of the Tate Liverpool, while sporting attractions like the Grand National and Liverpool FC attract tens of thousands of fans.

Days in Liverpool can be filled with museums, galleries and, let's face it, Beatles tours, while in the evenings, the city center is a hive of parties, gigs, and shows.

Top 5 Reasons to Visit Liverpool

1. an incredible musical heritage.

Not many cities in the world gave rise to their own "sound", but Liverpool did, and in the 1960s it dominated global pop. The Beatles were the trailblazers, and you can tour their childhood homes, schools, and gig venues. You can also check out the ancestors of the Fab Four at great events like September's Liverpool Psych Fest.

2. World-Class Art Galleries

These days, Liverpool is as famous for its visual arts as its music. That's mainly thanks to the superb Tate Liverpool, which has been hosting world-famous artists since 1988. But don't miss the Walker Art Gallery, where the collection is just as impressive.

3. Beautiful Georgian and Modern Architecture

Liverpool was once one of the world's riches cities (partly due to its place in the international slave trade). That history is reflected in the exquisite Georgian Quarter. But that's just one of many architectural attractions, with highlights including the beautifully regenerated Albert Dock, and the striking Liverpool Metropolitan Cathedral.

4. Thrilling Sporting Attractions

Liverpool is synonymous with sport, at least for soccer fans. For decades, Liverpool FC dominated the European game, and they are on the rise again. Every couple of weeks, Anfield is full of the most passionate fans in England. But if that's not for you, Aintree Racecourse hosts the Grand National horse race every April, and the area around Liverpool regularly hosts golf's Open Championship.

5. Unbeatable Nightlife

Young people in northwest England flock to Liverpool at the weekend (and most weeknights) for one thing: it's huge range of bars, gig venues, and nightclubs. Clubs like Mansion pump out tunes all night long, while August's Creamfields Festival is the UK's premier open air dance music event.

What to do in Liverpool

1. beatles story: guaranteed to raise a smile.

An audition held on the upper deck of a Liverpool bus wasn't enough to change the musical landscape of the entire planet, but it did impress John Lennon enough to ask George Harrison to join his band with Paul McCartney. Of course, with the later addition of Ringo Starr, that band would eventually become a global phenomenon that sold more than 800 million records. That's a mere snippet of the magical history tour provided by the award-winning Beatles Story, the world's largest permanent exhibition for everything Fab Four. George's first guitar (a $3 Egmond valued at $800,000), John's iconic granny glasses, the era-defining suits the band wore for the Sgt. Pepper photo shoot, the gates to Liverpool's Strawberry Fields children's home, as well as replicas of the Cavern Club and Abbey Road studios are among the many highlights.

2. St George's Hall: Law and Orchestra

Curiously opening in 1854 to house both the courts and the cultural arts, the imposing St. George's Hall is a magnificent example of neoclassical architecture in the heart of Liverpool. With its vast labyrinth of nooks and crannies, to a cavernous basement that once served as a jail for the condemned, to concert halls where Charles Dickens once read from his latest work, this vastly ornate hall is steeped in Liverpudlian history. Loved for centuries for its vaulted ceilings, Minton-tiled floors and massive pipe organ, St. George's is a popular film location open to the public for events and exhibitions.

3. Liverpool Cathedral: Treasure Trove of Superlatives

Dominating Liverpool's skyline, Britain's largest and most-photographed church is a treasure trove of superlatives. The world's largest Anglican church boasts the world's highest and heaviest peal of bells. With 10,267 pipes contained in two chambers, its magnificent organ is the largest in the UK, and its Gothic arches are the world's highest and widest. Artwork from five Royal Academicians, almost 20,000 square feet of stained glass, and panoramic views atop a church tower rising 500 feet over sea level make any excursion here an awe-inspiring experience.

4. Walker Art Gallery: The Best Historic Art Collection Outside London

For almost 150 years the Walker Art Gallery has exhibited one of the largest art collections in England, including Pre-Raphaelite works by Rossetti and Millais and Impressionism from Monet and Degas, along with Baroque-period masterpieces from Rubens, Poussin, and Rembrandt. Family-friendly, the gallery offers a Big Art for Little Artists program that introduces children under age eight to the collection.

5. Tate Liverpool: The Modern Masters' Warehouse Waterfront Home

Located on the fabled Albert Dock, Tate Liverpool is home to the most extensive collection of modern art outside England's capitol. Special exhibitions in recent years have included retrospectives of the work of Jackson Pollock, Pablo Picasso, and Andy Warhol, while the scope of the Tate Collection embraces all media and encompasses both British and international modern and contemporary art.

Activities & attractions in Liverpool

Where to Eat in Liverpool

Liverpool's dining scene has blossomed in line with its cultural attractions, and there aren't many better places to eat in northwest England. If you want gourmet French or traditional British food, try the superb Art School Restaurant, and the confusingly named London Carriage Works. The best restaurant near the docks is Miller & Carter, while the city's finest curries can be found at Rumi by Bukhara, which mixes wholesome Indian dishes and homemade ice cream. Prices vary. Expect a curry to come to around £15 per head, or a gourmet meal in the Georgian Quarter to cost upwards of £30 per person.

When to visit Liverpool

If you want to trace the lives of the Beatles or take a tour of the docks, summer is definitely the time to do so. Between early June and late August, Liverpool's weather should be fine for sightseeing, but take a raincoat just in case. Spring is often wet, but it's a good time to enjoy the museums and galleries without peak season crowds.

How to Get to Liverpool

Liverpool has its own airport (named after John Lennon) but most visitors from North America will touch down at Manchester instead. To get from there to central Liverpool, catch a Northern Rail service to Liverpool Lime Street, which takes less than 30 minutes. Expect taxis to cost around £50.

Liverpool Lime Street is well connected to London and Manchester, with at least two trains every hour during the day. The journey from London can take as little as two hours, but times vary depending on which ticket you buy, so be careful if you are in a hurry. Lime Street is centrally located, within walking distance of the docks and downtown hotels.

Those driving from London will need to take the M1 motorway to Rugby (Junction 19) and change to the M6, before leaving the M6 at Warrington (Junction 21A) and taking the M62 into town. The M62 runs straight from central Manchester, but if you are driving from Manchester Airport, take the M56 and then the M6 (Junction 9) towards Liverpool.

Liverpool is served by both Megabus and National Express buses, providing an affordable link to major cities like London, Birmingham, Leeds, Manchester, and Glasgow. Buses terminate at the Liverpool ONE Bus Station, which is directly opposite the Albert Dock.

Airports near Liverpool

Airlines serving liverpool, where to stay in liverpool.

The best hotels for sightseers in Liverpool are probably near the docks, where good options include the Crowne Plaza and the Mercure. However, the Hard Days Night Hotel offers a quirky, Beatles-inspired accommodation experience and may be more fun, while the Embassie offers cheaper hostel-style rooms.

Popular Neighborhoods in Liverpool

The Docks and Central Liverpool - Liverpool has been a major port for centuries, and it's hard to imagine the city without its docks. These days, they have been reinvented as a cultural hub where you'll find the Tate Liverpool, the Beatles Experience, the Merseyside Maritime Museum, and the International Slavery Museum.

The Georgian Quarter - when Liverpool shipped goods around the world, much of the wealth ended up in the Georgian Quarter, a gorgeous neighborhood of elegant houses and churches. It's also a gourmet dining center due to eateries like the London Carriage Works, and the home of the Liverpool Philharmonic, the city's finest classical music venue.

Northern Liverpool - north of the docks and the city center you'll find both of Liverpool's football clubs, Everton and Liverpool FC, as well as cultural gems like the stunning statues by Antony Gormley on Waterloo beach.

Where to stay in popular areas of Liverpool

Most booked hotels in liverpool, how to get around liverpool, public transportation.

Liverpool has a reliable subway and overground rail network called Merseyrail, which serves the suburbs fairly well. Just head to Liverpool Central station and you'll find your way to outlying destinations (unlimited day tickets cost £5.10). However, the city center is easy to walk around and parking is fairly easy to find, so tourists don't need to rely on public transportation.

Taxis are a handy way to get around Merseyside. For most of the day, standard rates of £2.20 for the meter drop, then around £1.40 per mile should apply. Uber offers an even cheaper service, charging a meter drop of £1 then £1.10 per mile for the UberX vehicles.

Car rental branches in Liverpool city center include Thrifty, Sixt, and Europcar and rates can be as little as £10 a day. If you have access to hotel parking space, having your own car will make it much easier to get around, and see day-trip destinations like Manchester or Chester, so it's well worth the expense.

Groceries and Other
