What Liverpool Has To Offer
Culture is a very broad concept and in Liverpool we've got it all from High Culture to Low Culture and of course Sub Culture.
As Capital of Pop Liverpool has been the home of classic pop songs by artists and bands lincluding The Beatles, Frankie Goes To Hollywood, Atomic Kitten, Cilla Black, Billy Fury, The Lightening Seeds and Cast, plus many more who have who have notched up more than 50 number UK No. 1 hit singles.
Almost every scouser thinks he or she is a comedian but some have gone right to the top and remained there for decades like Ken Dodd and Jimmy Tarbuck, amazing world class galleries and art collections, a range of museums, more listed historical buildings than anywhere in the UK outside London, places of interest and a world renowned and famous waterfront. Add to this the thriving live music, club and bar scene, large areas of greenery, mile upon mile of sandy beaches and a great choice of sporting events including golf, tennis, horse racing and football. Liverpool and the surrounding area has something for everyone one, whatever their age and whatever their interests.
