A Liverpool Welcome

Liverpool is known the world over with an enviable history of producing some of the best music, sport and art in the world. Populated by a passionate, witty and talented population the one thing we at CityLocal are sure of is that Liverpool should be on everybody's visit list.

As a city, Liverpool is diverse, energetic, exciting and undoubtedly unique: from celebrating Liverpool's 800th birthday in 2007 to being the European Capital of Culture this year; football to festivals; music to maritime; clubs to cuisine. We really believe that there's something for everyone here!

The Liverpool skyline is iconic, the architecture world-class, with more listed buildings than any city outside London. The heart of the city and its waterfront sit proudly alongside treasures like the Taj Mahal and Pyramids at Giza as a World Heritage Site. Whether coming to Liverpool for arts and culture, our revered nightlife, sport or family outings, you'll be spoilt for choice in this enigmatic and welcoming city.

Liverpool's Capital of Culture award is well deserved, with more museums and art galleries than any other city - outside of London - including the world renowned Tate and Walker Galleries and the Maritime Museum Liverpool is a 'must see' and exciting destination for all culture vultures!

Our city has literally helped change the face of music across the years, but undoubtedly the most famous of them all still attracts visitors and music lovers from all over the world. Liverpool's Beatles attractions include museums, tours, a branded hotel, the legendary Cavern Club as well as hosting the bustling Mathew Street Festival, a huge event that celebrates past, present and future musical talent and trends.

The home of two Europe-conquering football teams and two thoroughbred-testing racecourses, as well as a host of championship golf courses and a population that eats, sleeps and breathes sport, Liverpool and its region is the place to come, whether to participate or to be entertained by sport of the highest caliber.

Shopping is something that Liverpudlians love and this is reflected in the outstanding array of retail therapy in Liverpool. Our transformed City Centre boasts some of the largest big-name High Street stores in the country as well as a host of designer shops and a range of eclectic individual outlets.

In a city with such a wealth of musical achievement, you would expect a dazzling, diverse and vibrant nightlife this is delivered in spades by a diverse range of designer and trendy bars and restaurants (check out the Chinese food in the Chinese quarter). The club scene is truly trend setting with the most famous DJ's in the world regularly in attendance at some of the most exciting venues.

With Theatres, cinemas, concert halls, comedy clubs, fine restaurants, great family attractions and a range of huge events the only question we at CityLocal has is where are you?
