Embark on the Liverpool Audio Tour: Icons, Art, and Legends of the City Centre

Under the watchful gaze of stone gods and legends, Liverpool’s heart beats with secrets many never see. Ancient columns rise on bustling corners, theatres hold whispered scandals, and every building echoes with rebellion and renewal. This self-guided audio tour peels back the surface of the city centre, revealing hidden tales and dramatic turns where few tread.

What political struggle nearly demolished Liverpool’s first “temple of books”? Which theatrical star made their debut trembling backstage—just hours before the world changed? And why did a parade of rallying troops flood St George’s Plateau as pigeons scattered?

Walk in the shadows of classic porticos and beneath red-brick towers as histories collide. From high society intrigues to wild protests, rediscover Liverpool through vivid stories that turn each landmark into a stage for revolution, laughter, and survival.

Begin the journey now—and see what those silent columns have been waiting to tell you.
