Katie Bentley is Director of Strategic Partnerships and Communications at Liverpool BID Company said:
“Liverpool has an incredibly vibrant arts and cultural sector, with visitors reaching 1.8m in 2023 and returning to pre-pandemic levels. There are 27 arts and cultural organisations supported by Liverpool City Council, including major galleries, theatres, and festivals. There is also a wealth of independent arts activity going on with live music, walking tours and more that are part of the fabric of our city. At Liverpool BID we support arts and culture throughout the year with the Arts & Culture Fund, Liverpool Sculpture prize and more because not only is it a crucial part of our visitor economy, but it is also a huge part of our character and life here. For anyone whose New Year’s Resolution was to explore more of the city this year and try something new, then Must-See Month provides the perfect inspiration.”
The full programme will go live on the Liverpool BID’s website, and offers can be downloaded now here.
