Things to Do in Liverpool

Creative Tourist

Liverpool’s cultural calendar is in full swing, packed with bold ideas, boundary-pushing performances and electric nights out.

Lots of great-looking theatre capturing our attention this autumn, with the Everyman & Playhouse’s 2025/26 Season bringing fresh takes on classic texts, new writing and monstrous musicals.

Speaking of music, Liverpool Arts Club plays host to a “part rave, part art-happening” by one of our favourite electronic artists of the moment: Halina Rice.

As for art, you’ll find a thoughtful and accessible reflection on grief in Who Wants Flowers When They Are Dead?, and Liverpool Biennial’s standout photography exhibition at the Open Eye Gallery.
