Liverpool Attractions
Liverpool Football Club
Fans come from around the world to visit the hallowed turf of Anfield. If you're lucky enough to obtain tickets enjoy the match, if not you can always visit the museum at the ground and take a tour of the stadium.
The Tate Liverpool
The Tate Liverpool is Home of the National Collection of Modern Art in the North of England and the largest gallery of modern and contemporary art outside London. It is housed in a beautiful converted warehouse, part of the historic Liverpool Albert Dock.
Rene Margritte at the Tate Liverpool
René Magritte (1898–1967) is one of the most revered and popular artists of the 20th century. This summer, Tate Liverpool presents René Magritte: The Pleasure Principle, the biggest exhibition of the Belgian surrealist’s work in England for twenty years.
Renowned for witty images depicting everyday objects such as apples, bowler hats and pipes in unusual settings, Magritte’s art plays with the idea of reality and illusion.
Tate Liverpool’s exhibition will reveal the inspiration behind the artist’s celebrated style, focusing on the less explored aspects of Magritte’s life and artistic practice.
The Walker
Recently re-opened following a £4 million refurbishment programme., The Walker Art Gallery houses an internationally important collection of art from the 14th to the 20th Century, including masterpieces by Rembrandt, Rubens, Poussin, Gainsborough and Hogarth.
Albert Dock
By day visitors flock to Albert Dock to enjoy the Victorian architecture and to sample the cafes, galleries, museums and speciality shops. By night some of the City's coolest bars and restaurants draw a different crowd.
The Cathedrals
Liverpool is fortunate to have two very different, but equally stunning examples of ecclesiastical architecture.
