A massive programme of free outdoor activities is set to transform Liverpool city centre into an interactive relaxation zone this summer.
From 18 June until 27 August, there will be free events at locations across the city, from Bold Street, along the waterfront, Hope Street, St George’s Quarter, Derby Square, the Commercial District and more.
The multi-week campaign aims to make civic spaces highly accessible while encouraging residents and workers to spend more time outdoors.
With an events programme organised and supported by Liverpool Business Improvement District, you can visit a new place in the city centre for a free event designed to help you relax and get outside in the city.
A sound bath at Tempest on Tithebarn, food giveaways at Exchange Flags and Derby Square, mini golf, live music at Princes Dock and Williamson Square, street theatre on Bold Street, circus acts at the Pier Head, a chill-out session on deck chairs at the waterfront, there will be something for everyone.
Pop-Up Sports Tournaments Return to Public Squares
The summer schedule also brings back popular interactive sports installations following highly successful public turnouts during previous seasonal campaigns.
After the success of the World Chess Championships last summer, chess events will return to the city.
There will also be mini tennis events as the International Tennis Tournament returns to Liverpool.
This combination of mental and physical activities ensures that different generations can participate in the festivities simultaneously.
The entire initiative has been designed to operate without any financial barriers, allowing families to enjoy premium entertainment across the sunshine months completely free of charge.
Celebrating Summer launch
Katie Bentley, Director of Strategic Partnerships and Communications at Liverpool Business Improvement District, said:
“Celebrating Summer will add joy and activity for everyone in the city centre this summer.
“We want to keep this city centre accessible to everyone.
“Whether you want to dance to live music in the street, or have a quiet moment to chill and relax, there will be something for everyone and their family and friends.
“There will be animation and activity across the whole of the city.
“Our message is simple: get outside and relax, enjoy the city and everything it has to offer and it’s all free.”
The full schedule, including specific weekly locations and exact performance times, is being hosted digitally by the regional business collective.
