LIVERPOOL GUIDE | 3 |

WELCOME TO LIVERPOOL LIVERPOOL. The very name conjures up images of a world-beating musical heritage, two of the Premiership’s biggest football teams, a glorious maritime history and not one, but two majestically different Cathedrals.

This Northwest city and the surrounding City Region is certainly all those things, but it is also so much more. Liverpool is undergoing a thrilling renaissance, recognised by its hugely successful year as European Capital of Culture and UNESCO World Heritage status.

It is now filled with fabulous new shops, has buzzing restaurants, hip hotels and trendy wine bars, as well as a world class cultural offering with the finest collection of museums and galleries outside London.

This season will see the Liverpool City Region come alive with exciting events, from cultural to music, family friendly to nightlife – the packed events programme is sure to inspire a memorable visit!

Highlights this season include Memories of August 1914 where giants once again return to the city streets, Liverpool Biennial - the UK’s contemporary arts festival, a fascinating exhibition of work by Dutch artist Mondrian at Tate Liverpool, The Open Championship at Royal Liverpool Golf Club and the very first International Festival for Business (IFB 2014) complete with an accompanying cultural programme.

CULTURE & HERITAGELIVERPOOL OOZES CULTURE AND HERITAGE. THE CITY HAS A GLORIOUS PAST AS A MERCANTILE HUB AND GATEWAY TO THE NEW WORLD, BUT TODAY IT IS ALSO A KEY DESTINATION FOR ART LOVERS, FANS OF THE THEATRE AND MUSEUM GOERS.

Art. Tate Liverpool is the home of the National Collection of Modern Art in the north and is one of the most visited galleries outside of London. Recent featured artists have included Marc Chagall, Gustav Klimt, Pablo Picasso and Claude Monet.

The city has numerous other art attractions too. Don’t miss the impressive Open Eye Gallery, one of the UK’s first dedicated photographic galleries. Visit the Walker Art Gallery too, the national gallery of the North – ask at reception for a helpful guide to the highlights, including works by Hockney, Degas, Turner and Rembrandt, all of which are housed on the first floor.

Check out the Bluecoat, a distinctive Grade I listed arts centre, over 290 years old which offers an inspiring programme of visual art, music, dance, live art and literature.

Across the Mersey at Port Sunlight on Wirral Peninsula is another National Museums Liverpool venue, the Lady Lever Art Gallery, a beautiful, highly personal collection of fine and decorative arts.

Heritage. Like the Great Wall of China and the Pyramids of Giza, Liverpool is a UNESCO World Heritage Site. Its impressive waterfront in addition to other areas of the city centre qualified the city for this status in 2004.

Stroll around Albert Dock to drink in some of the history then take a trip across the Mersey on one of the river’s famous Mersey Ferries to see the awe-inspiring view of the Liverpool Waterfront.

Liverpool has a unique mix of contemporary and classic architecture too. There’s the soaring Gothic Revival Liverpool Cathedral, the

#VisitLiverpool

biggest Anglican Cathedral in the UK. The modernist Catholic Cathedral, affectionately known as ‘Paddy’s Wigwam’ stands at the other end of Hope Street. Its vast stained glass crown floods the interiors with different colours.

A fascinating way to spend the afternoon is to take a RIBA Liverpool City Tour – telling the story of Liverpool past, present and future through the buildings and spaces that make up the city.

The city also has a variety of fully qualified Blue Badge guides who offer a wide range of services from individual walking tours to large coach tours. There is a huge selection of special interest tours on offer too such as photography, architecture, ghost tours, comedy tours and of course, the Fab Four.

Why not take a break from city life with a stroll in one of Liverpool’s parks? Sefton Park is a magnificent 200

acre naturally landscaped park. There is a boating lake, café and the Palm House, a fabulous restored Victorian glass-panelled building.

Museums. Liverpool has one of the most impressive collections of museums in the country. Among the most exciting is the fantastic new Museum of Liverpool. This opened in the Summer of 2011 and has attracted unprecedented visitor numbers ever since. Housed in a landmark building at the Pier Head, it is the largest newly built national museum in Britain for more than a century and the world’s only venue devoted to the history of a regional city.

Pop into the Merseyside Maritime Museum, where you can find out about the companies, people and ships connected to this great port. World Museum is another fascinating spot, bulging with historic treasures from around the world, with an aquarium, bug house and

planetarium. Liverpool’s Central Library has re-opened after a £50 million renovation, the stunning building is a must-see and includes a beautiful glass domed ceiling and roof top terrace with views across the city.

Performance. The Royal Court is a truly landmark performance venue in Liverpool and offers a wide variety of plays and shows throughout the year. Other performance spaces include the Empire Theatre, Playhouse and recently rebuilt Liverpool Everyman, noted for its bohemian environment and political edge while the acclaimed FACT (Foundation for Art and Creative Technology) centre specialises in multimedia exhibitions, film and digital art.

Liverpool’s Epstein Theatre has housed many famous productions in its 100 year history. It is named after Liverpool’s most successful music entrepreneur and Beatles manager, Brian Epstein.

MUSICTHINK LIVERPOOL, THINK THE BEATLES. THE CITY IS OFFICIALLY THE WORLD CAPITAL OF POP, AND THE FAB FOUR ARE, OF COURSE, ITS MOST FAMOUS OFFSPRING.

Non-negotiable is a trip to The Beatles Story at Albert Dock, a brilliant tour through The Beatles’ lives, with fascinating memorabilia and insights from friends and family. You should also pop into the Cavern Club on Mathew Street, the most famous club in the world, for a beer and live music, or visit Mendips and 20 Forthlin Road in Allerton, the childhood homes of John Lennon and Sir Paul McCartney, both National Trust properties.

Beyonce, Justin Bieber, The Who, Sir Elton John and Arctic Monkeys are just a selection of the artists to have played at Liverpool Echo Arena, on the city’s waterfront. The list of previous performances reads like a veritable A-Z of music superstardom, as performers appreciate the fervent reception from Liverpool audiences. And don’t miss superstar Kylie this September.

Liverpool International Music Festival

VisitLiverpool.com



@VisitLiverpool

As well as two cathedrals, Hope Street is also home to the Royal Liverpool Philharmonic Orchestra, led by multi-award winning Russian Chief Conductor Vasily Petrenko. The critically-acclaimed orchestra performs in the magnificent Art Deco surroundings of the Royal Philharmonic Hall.

Visit LEAF, Camp and Furnace, The Shipping Forecast or East Village Arts Club to see the best alternative artists from around the world play in unique venues. These four have been leading the city’s resurgence as a live music venue, attracting some of the hottest bands and DJs to Liverpool in recent years.

Last year’s inaugural Liverpool International Music Festival was deemed a massive success, and the event is coming back for an encore in 2014. The diverse programme ensures every musical taste is catered for – from a free bank holiday line-up in Sefton Park attracting thousands to experimental shows in galleries and studio spaces.

NIGHTLIFELIVERPUDLIANS LIKE TO SOCIALISE. THEIR SENSE OF FUN AND LOVE OF A GREAT NIGHT OUT GUARANTEE THAT THE CITY’S BARS ARE LIVELY AND ITS NIGHTLIFE IS LEGENDARY – SO MUCH IN FACT THAT THE USERS OF TRIPADVISOR VOTED LIVERPOOL AS BRITAIN’S BEST NIGHTLIFE DESTINATION.

Liverpool is a city that is very proud of its nightlife, both due to the variety and quality on offer. From superclubs to pubs with dogs, a thriving gay quarter to comedy venues on the waterfront, dance warehouses to concept bars, Liverpool at night has many faces.

The Carpathia Bar at 30 James Street is a perfect place to start. With breath-taking panoramic views of the World Heritage Site from the twin 100ft balconies, mixologists will create cocktails from across the world while you enjoy the sunset. For further stunning vistas, check out Panoramic34. From the 34th floor of West Tower in the Commercial District, you can drink in the views while enjoying the signature Hemmingway Daiquiri or classic French Martini.

Other hotel bars to check out include The White Bar at Radisson Blu, Pima at the Hilton Liverpool and the Plum Bar at Malmaison for a sophisticated cocktail or perfectly mixed gin and tonic.

There are also traditional pubs on virtually every street corner, where the welcome will be warm and the beer just the right temperature. Try Thomas Rigby’s on Dale Street, one of Liverpool’s oldest pubs that offers a range of 40+ world beers and eight cask conditioned ales, or head for The Fly in the Loaf on Hardman Street for premium Belgian and German beers. Ye Hole in Ye Wall is a really traditional hostelry, as well as Liverpool’s reputedly oldest pub, offering heaps of atmosphere, great beer and lots of old photos of the city.

Santa Chupitos


#VisitLiverpool

Seel Street and the area around it have undergone a major transformation in the past decade or so, to the point that it is now a go-to for nightlife. No matter what you’re looking for, you’ll find it here. Glamour and Latin dancers in a former Polish church: Alma de Cuba. Hawaii’an-themed cocktail bar: Aloha. Traditional pub with top-notch food: The Monro. Hot dogs, steins and a bar with a secret code: Salt Dog Slims. Arts hub specialising in whisky and real ales: MelloMello. This is without even mentioning Santa Chupitos, Almost Famous or Empire. And of course, if you’re staying out until the bitter end, The Peacock and Heebie Jeebies are always good for a dance.

Liverpool’s LGBT nightlife is centred around Dale Street, Cumberland Street and Eberle Street – all of which surround Stanley Street, the de facto heart of the city’s gay quarter. Garlands is arguably the most iconic club in the quarter, with Thursdays and Saturdays being particularly popular for fans of glamour and craziness. There are plenty of other great places to dance until sunrise, including G-Bar, Pink, Heaven, Navy Bar and Superstar Boudoir. If you want something a bit quieter, pubs in the area include The Poste House (with its upstairs disco), The Curzon and the iconic Lisbon.

Bar Four

Camp & Furnace

Alma de Cuba

VisitLiverpool.com


The Baltic Triangle is the hippest area of the city, and has seen a sea-change in recent years. Camp and Furnace is the obvious place to start. The truly unique space houses everything from a bar packed with international beers to Eurovision parties, Scandinavian festivals, Biennial installations and weekly food slams. It’s perfectly complemented just around the corner by the Baltic Social, recently opened on the ground floor of Elevator Studios and offering a more intimate setting than its neighbour.

You should also check out Bar Four at the boutique Hard Days Night Hotel, which attracts a beautiful crowd or stylish Palm Sugar at Liverpool ONE.

SPORTLIVERPOOL IS SPORT MAD. IT IS HOME TO TWO OF THE PREMIER LEAGUE’S BIGGEST FOOTBALL TEAMS, MAKING FOOTBALL A RELIGION IN THE CITY AND A TOPIC THAT IS THE SOURCE OF MUCH HEATED FRIENDLY DEBATE IN THE CITY’S PUBS.

Liverpool’s inhabitants are clearly divided between support for the Reds, or Liverpool FC, and the Blues, or Everton FC. The Reds have one of the largest trophy cabinets in football today, with an impressive 18 League titles, five European Cups and seven FA Cups.

Founded in 1878, The Blues have always been at the forefront of English football and are a founding member of the Football League, boasting nine league titles, five FA Cups and a European Cup Winners’ Cup.

The Liverpool FC Stadium

Tour and Museum is a must for all Liverpool fans. Why not include a stop off at ‘The Boot Room’ café for a bite to eat?

The Liverpool City Region is also renowned for golf. England’s Golf Coast, the finest stretch of championship golf in the world, is home to three Royal Open Championship venues and numerous other naturally beautiful golf courses.

Royal Liverpool, at Hoylake, is the second oldest links course in England and plays host to The Open Championship from 13th – 20th July 2014, when the world’s finest will return

to England’s golf coast for the fourth time in eight years to battle it out for the Claret Jug. There will be more Open action that month, as Royal Birkdale welcomes the Ricoh British Women’s Open.

The Crabbie’s Grand National, which takes place every April at Aintree Racecourse, is another major sporting event within the region, attracting a global TV audience of 600 million. This British sporting institution has been hosted at Aintree Racecourse since 1839, when

a horse called Lottery won the first ever Grand National. The Liverpool Hope University International Tennis Tournament takes place in June at Liverpool Cricket Club. Having attracted star names such as John McEnroe, Martina Navratilova and Martina Hingis, this year’s event will see reigning Wimbledon champion Marion Bartoli come out of retirement to play.

In September, cycling enthusiasts will line the city streets when The Tour of Britain

stages its Grand Départ in Liverpool. Besides all this, the region also has a strong rugby league tradition. St Helens Rugby League Club, one of the world’s most famous sides, play at the 18,000-capacity Langtree Park, which hosted its first Saints game in February 2012. Langtree Park was also one of the host venues of the 2013 Rugby League World Cup. Widnes Vikings, who play at the Stobart Stadium in Halton, are one of the world’s first rugby league teams and have recently returned to the Super League.

EATLIVERPOOL HAS EVERY KIND OF RESTAURANT, FROM SLEEK FINE DINING TO INDEPENDENT BISTROS AND HIGH STREET FAVOURITES, AND IT CAN TICK JUST ABOUT EVERY BOX IN TERMS OF INTERNATIONAL CUISINE, RANGING FROM INDULGENT ITALIAN TO SPICY THAIS.

Head to 60 Hope Street for classic, gourmet dishes and sample its signature dessert – a deep fried jam sandwich with Carnation milk ice cream.

Alternatively visit its sister restaurant, the superb pan-Asian HOST, or check out the highly praised Puschka, also in Liverpool’s Georgian Hope Street Quarter – a funky, bohemian eatery, which specialises in superfresh, locally sourced produce.

You can also enjoy fine dining, a slinky Classic Champagne cocktail and breath-taking 360° views across the city at Panoramic34. Or go and feast on modern international food at The London Carriage Works at Hope Street Hotel, popular with the city’s gastronomes. In the Baltic Triangle area, try Camp and Furnace, recently

named the UK’s second coolest restaurant by The Times.

For a taste of the far east head to Liverpool’s China Town, the oldest Chinese community in Europe, for a wide choice of restaurants. Liverpool also has its very own, multi award-winning, authentic Japanese restaurant, Etsu, specialising in everything from traditional sashimi and sushi to delicious, speciality meat and fish dishes.

Then there’s the fabulous San Carlo on Castle Street, serving up authentic Italian dishes and described by Vogue as ‘a must for lovers of fine Italian cuisine’. Marco Pierre White has also added to his presence in the North West by opening up the Marco Pierre White Steakhouse Bar & Grill restaurant at the boutique Hotel Indigo on Chapel Street.

Albert Dock


@VisitLiverpool

Southport is excellent for eating out too. Try the trendy V-Café at the Vincent Hotel on Lord Street, which serves tasty soups, freshly blended juices and Asian sushi and sashimi. Great for lunch, but a top evening destination too, with dimmed lights, candles and groovy music. Or go to the Warehouse Kitchen+Bar, which combines national dishes like superb fish and chips with top international dishes such as Moroccan shank of lamb. A former Warehouse chef has also opened Bistro Vérité, a fabulous family run restaurant in Birkdale, serving up excellent rustic French bistro dishes.

Over on Wirral Peninsula, the gourmet offering is centred around fresh, locally sourced produce. The exclusive Yellow Room at the Hillbark Hotel in Frankby serves food in sumptuous surroundings. Fraiche in Oxton village is a discreet and understated restaurant while Curio in West Kirby is gaining a reputation for its modern menu and quirky beers.

EXPLORESHOULD YOU WISH TO ESCAPE FROM THE BRIGHT LIGHTS AND BUZZ OF LIVERPOOL, THERE ARE LOTS OF AWARD WINNING BEACHES AND COASTAL WALKS NEARBY, PLUS STUNNING PARKS, BOTANIC GARDENS AND COUNTRYSIDE SPAS WHERE YOU CAN BLOW AWAY THE COBWEBS.

Head across to Wirral Peninsula and stride out to Hilbre Island Local Nature Reserve at West Kirby, not forgetting to check the tide timetable before you go! Explore the endless sand dunes along Sefton’s coast, be rejuvenated by refreshing winds as you stroll along Southport Pier, or walk the Wirral Way with its fabulous views across to the Welsh hills, ducking the golf balls off the nearby golf courses on your way. Gardening enthusiasts might like to learn all about wildflowers at the National Wildflower Centre, set in the tranquil Victorian Court Hey Park. Both Southport and Knowsley hold annual flower shows, too, with giant floral marquees as well as an array of attractions including crafts demonstrations, arts workshops and even dog obedience classes.

A trip to the Wirral should include a visit to the historic village of Port Sunlight with its late 19th century

Victorian cottages built by philanthropist Lord Lever for the workers in his Sunlight Soap factory. Don’t miss the Lady Lever Art Gallery there either, a wonderful, highly personal collection by Lord Lever of fine and decorative art, dedicated to the memory of his wife. Or visit Daresbury Village, the birthplace of Lewis Carroll – go into the Parish Church of All Saints and you can find a stained glass window featuring the author and many of the characters from Alice’s Adventures in Wonderland. Knowsley Safari Park is well worth a visit – with over 700 exotic animals, amusement rides and a fantastic Sea Lion show, only 8 miles from the city centre and in the parklands of the stunning Knowsley Hall. Chester Zoo is also a great day out for the family with some of the most endangered and exotic species in the world.

and the only Beauty Bazaar, Harvey Nichols in the country.In addition to every big high street name, Liverpool also has the exclusive Metquarter in Whitechapel, a designer shopping centre that houses rather select names such as Joe Malone, L.K. Bennett, cult beauty brand Illamasqua and the fabulously British outfitters, Jack Wills.

Another gorgeous place to stay is Hope Street Hotel, the city’s first boutique hotel which opened near the Cathedrals and opposite The Philharmonic Hall.

CRUISE LIVERPOOLLIVERPOOL’S ICONIC WATERFRONT IS WELCOMING MORE VISITORS THAN EVER, AS PASSENGERS DISCOVER WHY IT IS SUCH A POPULAR DESTINATION.

Liverpool is known globally for its close links with the sea. It is a city with a rich maritime history stretching back centuries, and the water plays a huge role in Liverpool life to this day. Its iconic waterfront, largely built in connection with maritime trade, is the defining image of the city and getting the ‘ferry ‘cross the Mersey’ is a must for all visitors. While freight ships and ferries are still a regular sight on the River Mersey though, these days they are joined by something a little more luxurious.

Liverpool Cruise Terminal welcomes liners from around the world into that famous waterfront, which is a key part of Liverpool’s status as a UNESCO World Heritage site. The cruise berth stands at the Pier Head, in the shadow of

the Three Graces – The Cunard Building, Port of Liverpool Building and, of course, The Royal Liver Building atop which sit the ‘guardians’ of the city, the Liver birds. These three buildings ensure a striking first impression of the city.

Just further along the waterfront is Albert Dock, a complex of dock buildings and warehouses first opened in 1846. Nowadays, they are home to a fantastic range of restaurants, cafes, bars, museums and clubs which cater for every taste, from morning to late night.

There is also the outstanding Museum of Liverpool, a £72million development which is the most visited museum outside of the capital.



Since opening in 2007, Liverpool Cruise Terminal has proved very popular with visitors and in 2014 will welcome more than 70,000 passengers on 50 ships. Its popularity saw Liverpool recently selected as ‘Best UK Port of Call’ at the Cruise Critic UK Editors’ Pick Awards. This phenomenal growth is a symbol of the city’s renaissance over the last decade, and Liverpool looks set to become even more popular as a world class cruise destination in years to come.

For more information on Liverpool Cruise Terminal and the range of options available to passengers, please visit www.cruise-liverpool.com

NEXT YEAR MARKS THE 175TH ANNIVERSARY OF CUNARD LINE’S FIRST TRANSATLANTIC CROSSING FROM LIVERPOOL TO NORTH AMERICA.

Its famous ships have been crossing between Europe and America every year since – in peace and in war.

To celebrate its 175th year of service, Cunard is planning a spectacular return to its spiritual home in Liverpool.

In May 2015 the Cunard fleet, led by the spectacular flagship Queen Mary 2 will meet in the Mersey for the first time. It promises to be a memorable day when another chapter in the City’s maritime history will be written. Queen Elizabeth and Queen Victoria will join their illustrious sister in a special salute to Liverpool.

The celebrations will continue on 4 July when Queen Mary 2 returns to Liverpool Cruise Terminal at the start of a special voyage to recreate Sir Samuel Cunard’s first North Atlantic crossing to Halifax, Nova Scotia; Boston and New York.
