Animating the Streets
From its annual Lord Mayor's Parade to its celebrations for Chinese New Year and fantastic outdoor festivals, Liverpool's cultural life isn't just confined to its theatres and concert halls but will spill out onto its streets, parks and public spaces throughout the year. Even if you've just come into the city for one of our world-class attractions, shopping or sport, you may chance upon a theatre, or even join the crowds to enjoy the spectacle of something really special.
La Machine
5-7 September 08
This two day event will be huge in scale and utterly unlike anything seen in Liverpool before: an unforgettable piece of live theatre, played out against the landmarks of a great city. Artichoke, the company that brought the spectacular Sultan's Elephant event to London, is planning a magical new show, created specially for Liverpool 08.
