Home · Events in Liverpool This Week
This week in Liverpool, events offer a diverse range of ways to spend your time from May 17th to May 24th, 2026. You can find live music from emerging talents performing at intimate venues along Mathew Street. For cultural immersion, a tour of the historic Albert Dock reveals the city’s maritime past. Explore Liverpool’s role in the Industrial Revolution through staged performances. If you're looking for a creative outlet, workshops and art sessions are available. Connect with others at networking events or in lively evenings. Liverpool's nightlife runs late, with many bars and clubs open past midnight. Whether you're after live music, a cultural experience, or time with family, there's something to suit. Public transport, especially Merseyrail, offers convenient access to most venues, though peak times bring congestion. Check Merseytravel for real-time updates on train and bus services. A short drive away, the Royal Liverpool Philharmonic hosts comedians and original music. Just outside the city, the Cavern Club brings live gigs.
