Liverpool Business Improvement District is supporting Liverpool Music Month to celebrate the city\u2019s global music status. Bookended by two bank holiday weekends, Liverpool Music Month will bring a dynamic programme of live performances into the heart of the city. From the moment visitors step out of Lime Street Station, they will be welcomed by bold flags outside St George\u2019s Hall announcing the start of the celebration.<\/p>\n
As audiences move through the city centre, they will encounter a mix of buskers outside retailers, pop-up performances, processions, and choirs. The experience will extend across the city with coordinated signage, flags, and digital screens, creating a unified and accessible musical journey through Liverpool\u2019s streets. A few famous faces may pop up during the celebrations.\u00a0<\/p>\n
This weekend has started off with the 20 Stories High Sound System festival in Williamson Square on Saturday, the Liverpool European Festival Parade on Sunday starting at Bombed Out Church through to Church Street and Dockstars showcasing new artists to music fans at Royal Albert Dock Liverpool.\u00a0<\/p>\n
This month-long programme will showcase Liverpool\u2019s identity as a true music city, celebrating its heritage while cementing its position as the global capital of music.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Liverpool BID invited businesses to take part, inviting music into their venue or dressing its exterior. The businesses and venues taking part include; The Plaza, Cotton Exchange, Resurrection (Bold Street), Bluecoat, Central Station, James Street Station, Moorfields Station, Royal Albert Dock, Caf\u00e9 Tabac<\/p>\n
As lead city partner, Liverpool BID\u2019s investment represents an added support to enhance the programme, with more animation and activity. As with all the work and support that Liverpool BID gives to the city its core driver is to increase footfall to the city centre, helping to benefit businesses across the city economy and improve the wider visitor experience. The initiative is also supported by confirmed match funding from Liverpool City Council, the Liverpool City Region Combined Authority, and Arts Council England.<\/p>\n
Bill Addy, CEO of Liverpool Business Improvement District said: \u201cLiverpool Music Month is an opportunity to bring our streets to life in a way that only this city can. We are delighted to have the support of our levy payers, whose passion for this city helps to contribute to its vibrant atmosphere. We want as many people as possible to be able to enjoy the character and love of music this city demonstrates every day\u201d.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Becky Ayres, Sound City\u2019s Managing Director and Liverpool City Region Music Board member added: \u201cIt\u2019s brilliant to be working alongside Liverpool BID to help spread this festival into every corner of the city centre. We said we wanted Music Month to be something you see and feel, wherever you are in the city and whatever you are here for. Businesses are an integral part of Liverpool\u2019s music story and a vital partner in creating a visitor experience that lifts that story from the stage to the streets.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Liverpool Business Improvement District is supporting Liverpool Music Month to celebrate the city\u2019s global music status.
