Liverpool's status as the cultural home of British music was secured with four local mop-tops in the early 1960s and there's little chance of locals relinquishing its title. 
You will find traces of The Beatles at nearly every turn in modern Liverpool. But don't overlook their many predecessors, like Britain's first great rock'n'roller Billy Fury, or their contemporaries in the 1960s Merseybeat movement that would revolutionise pop culture.
Liverpool Echo Arena is the city's superior venue for concertsand hosts world-famous artists and bands.
