Fun Days Out in Liverpool During the Week

Posted on 04.04.2019

There’s plenty of ways to spend fun days out in Liverpool even if you are visiting the city midweek. Whether you are planning a trip to Liverpool with the family, friends or someone special, The Shankly Hotel has some magnificent offers to help you on your way.

So, here are some of the fun ways to spend days out in Liverpool during the week.

Catch Up On Culture

During the weekend, Liverpool’s museums and galleries can be jam-packed with people making it difficult or less enjoyable to take a leisurely visit. Instead, plan your trip to Liverpool midweek and take your time strolling around the exhibitions at the TATE or check out some fabulous photography at the Open Eye Gallery.

From The Shankly, guests are within a stone’s throw of the Walker Art Gallery and World Museum on William Brown Street. Here you can enjoy discovering oodles of world culture from ancient civilisations to the world of dinosaurs and more amazing artwork collections!

Come rain or shine, there are plenty of museums in Liverpool all of which are worth a visit midweek. Pop into the Merseyside Maritime Museum to see a vast collection of seafaring memorabilia, exhibitions and demonstrations linked to Liverpool’s maritime heritage – or why not hop on over the Mersey to see the stunning Lady Lever Art Gallery in Port Sunlight?

A monument in itself, the Lady Lever Art Gallery houses an impressive collection of sculptures and ancient furniture, weaponry and artwork that was once collected by Lord Lever himself.

All these fun days out in Liverpool are easy to reach from the comfort of The Shankly Hotel and better still – they’re all free!

Indulge In Some Retail Therapy

Liverpool is a city known for its unique style; the lads and lasses here move to the beat of their own drum when it comes to dressing themselves and because of this, there’s a wide selection of places to indulge in a little retail therapy. For those whose idea of a fun day out in Liverpool involve combing through rails and rails of fabulous clothing, make your way over to Liverpool One.

Liverpool’s largest shopping experience has streets filled with the top high-street fashion and apparel stores, as well as places to stop and have a cocktail break or grab a bite to eat.

If you prefer to purchase your clothing from finer quality outlets, make your way to Peter’s Lane where you’ll find the likes of Whistles, Harvey Nichols, The White Company and Michael Kors. There are plenty of places to spend those hard-earned pennies on the perfect fashion purchase!

Others who might have a quirkier sense of style and enjoy trawling through handfuls of vintage garb can take a walk up and down Bold Street where the streets are lined with boutique and vintage clothing stores that have everything from fashion and accessories to books, art and music. Take a read of a guide to eating on Bold Street here.
