Welcome to LJMU EVERYONE’S FAVOURITE CITY
Recently voted by Condé Nast as the best English destination outside London, Liverpool really does have it all. Busy enough to feel exciting, yet small and friendly enough to feel like home, this multi-cultural destination is a massive hit with students from all over the world.
Whatever you look for in a city you’re sure to find it – and much, much more – in Liverpool.
Culture Vultures
If you’re a lover of architecture, you’re sure to be in your element exploring England’s finest Victorian city with over 2,500 listed buildings. And if it’s culture you’re looking for, why not visit the city’s amazing free museums and galleries including The World Museum, Merseyside Maritime Museum, the Tate and the Walker Art Gallery?
For theatre and classical music, head to the RIBA award-winning Everyman, the Playhouse, Royal Court, Empire and the Philharmonic. And thanks to our partnerships with cultural organisations across the city, discounted student tickets are often available.
Time To Dine
Should all of that exploration leave you feeling a little peckish, you’ll love Liverpool’s amazing dining scene. With restaurants representing the wonderful multicultural nature of the city, there’s always something new to try no matter your budget or taste. And if it’s more of a snack than a meal that you’re looking for, Liverpool has a huge variety of options. From our independent cafes on Bold Street to our busy Baltic Market, you will find something perfect to satisfy your taste buds.
Busy Busy Busy
When living in Liverpool, you will never be bored. Whether you like shopping, activities, or learning about something new, there’s always something to do. From shopping in Liverpool ONE to rooting around independent boutiques, playing mini golf at Golf Fang to going up to the top of the Radio City tower, there is always something to keep you busy.
In the evenings, you can jump straight into the famous Liverpool nightlife with a range of bars, clubs and venues to visit. Whether you like a boogie or enjoy discovering new bands, there is somewhere for you. We are the home of the legendary Bongos Bingo and regularly have new act nights in our Cavern Club, where the Beatles officially launched their music back in the 1960s. Is music not for you? Visit our Hot Water Comedy Club and enjoy their free open mic nights. There’s no better night out than an evening in Liverpool.
AND RELAX….
And finally, should you ever need a break from the hustle and bustle of city life, Liverpool’s green spaces are plentiful and beautiful. From Sefton Park with its historic Palm House to Calderstones Park with its 1,000 year-old oak tree and Stanley Park with its Grade II listed Isla Gladstone Conservatory, there’s everything you need to de-stress and unwind.
