We’re Back!

2019 is underway and we’re sure you can’t wait to start filling your calendar with Liverpool’s best upcoming events. But it’s hard to keep track of everything that’s happening across the city, right?

That’s why we’re now back after completely redesigning LiverpoolandBeyond.com. With our new and improved events calendar, it’s now easier than ever to see the most interesting events that are happening in Liverpool every day of the week.

And we’ve even put together a few City Guides to keep you up to date with the best attractions, cafes, co-working spaces and restaurants in Liverpool. We’ll be doing our best to keep these up to date, so be sure to bookmark them to revisit again and again!

Along with all these updates, we’ll now be sending out a monthly newsletter, sharing the absolute best of what we’re discovering across the city! So without further ado, here’s our first newsletter of 2019!
