Guide to Liverpool's Nightlife

Jul 23, 2024
The nightlife of Liverpool
Planning a weekend in Liverpool? You’ll be spoilt for choice with lively bars and nightclubs for an unforgettable night out. As the birthplace of The Beatles, Cilla Black and Ken Dodd, this northwestern powerhouse has many treasures to unearth once the sun goes down. Whether you live across the Mersey on the Wirral or are visiting for a hen party, here are five of the best Liverpool nightlife hotspots.

1. Concert Square

Often regarded as Liverpool’s central nightlife hub, Concert Square is your go-to place if you fancy dancing to the latest chart, R&B and hip-hop tunes. In the heart of the action, this vibrant square is packed with bars, pubs and nightclubs that stay open until dawn. It features an outdoor seating area, perfect on summer days, and is a stone’s throw from Liverpool’s main attractions.
 
Some of the best places to grab a drink include:
 
• Soho
• McCooley’s
• Coyote Ugly Saloon


2. Ropewalks

Next door to Concert Square is Ropewalks, another popular nightlife spot with a unique bohemian vibe. The name derives from the rope-making craft for sailing ships that dominated the area during the 19th century. Today, it’s home to excellent restaurants, vibrant venues and comedy clubs like Hot Water. 
 
If you want to enjoy some drinks while dancing the night away, head to:
 
• Heebie Jeebies
• Alma de Cuba
• Be At One


3. Matthew Street

The spiritual home of The Beatles, Matthew Street will take you back in time to the ‘60s. The Fab Four played around 300 gigs beneath the Cavern’s iconic brick arches, and their music rings everywhere along the street. You’ll find many Beatles-related landmarks, including the John Lennon statue, the Liverpool Beatles Museum and a sculpture by Arthur Dooley called ‘Four Lads Who Shook The World’. 
 
If you want to pay tribute to their legacy, these places won’t disappoint:
 
• The Cavern Club
• Rubber Soul
• The Grapes
 

4. Baltic Triangle

One of the best places to go in Liverpool for an entertainment-filled night out is the Baltic Triangle. This array of warehouses converted into quirky venues brings fantastic tunes and performers to the local scene. Modern but with a unique industrial feel, the Baltic Triangle also has some of the city’s best street food, with Greek, Italian and Thai options.

• 24 Kitchen Street 
• Baltic Fleet

5. Pride Quarter

The LGBTQ+ community knows how to have fun, and the Pride Quarter is the place to be. Also known as the Stanley Street Quarter, it consists of mixed-use developments, including hotels, residential blocks, pubs and nightclubs. It hosts the annual Liverpool Pride, drag shows and other unmissable events.
