16 Liverpool City Region things to do this week

Liverpool City Region is filled with tasty food, great shows, nights out and more.

After all the Eurovision handover excitement it’s back to business as usual this week with loads of great things going on right across Liverpool City Region.

If you’re looking for ideas, here are 16 things you could be doing …

Tuck into Greek cuisine at The Monro

Stay cosy by the log fire at one of Liverpool’s most historic pubs, The Monro on Duke Street, and try out their Greek kitchen. Ethos serves traditional and more experimental Greek dishes and a bottomless deal is on until Feb 14, including a starter and main (or three small plates) with 90min of drinks. Get more info here.

Everyone is talking about Emily’s in Formby

Emily's

For a gorgeous place that’s not only really pretty but has amazing food and cocktails too, Emily’s ticks all the right boxes. It only opened a couple of months ago but it’s already a massive favourite for breakfast, brunch (it’s French toast heaven!) and lunch – and in the evenings, Wed-Sun, for food or just drinks. More info here.

Fiesta of Fire is back this weekend at the Albert Dock

Fiesta of Fire was absolutely stunning on its first weekend with some incredible fire acts lighting up the Albert Dock and the good news, especially if you missed it that time, is it’s back again for the next two weekends with even more free fire performances from afternoon to early evening. More info here.

City of Liverpool FC play Hanley Town on Saturday – Berry Street Stadium, Bootle

One of the biggest arcade hangouts in the city at ArCains

Beatles fans are in for a treat because Two of Us, featuring the music of Lennon and McCartney, is at the Royal Court for two weeks. The show sees Tom Connor and Mark Newnham return after their hit run of Lennon, performing the pair’s iconic songs in concert. From Friday Feb 10 to Sat Feb 25.

The Seafood Shack is open at Claremont Farm 

Liverpool City Region

We never need an excuse to go to Claremont Farm in Bebington – but now there’s an extra one anyway. From Thurs-Sat, winter opening, The Seafood Shack is back so you can get all your fresh seafood, and then nip to the farm shop for home-grown produce and café for a lovely breakfast or lunch.

Breakfast, lunch or tea at The Bookbinder, Lark Lane

Book here.

Ravin’ Fit at Tranmere Rovers

You don’t have to slog it at the gym to burn off calories because you could be having fun with your mates instead. This Friday there’ll be a mega Ravin’ Fit class at Tranmere from 7.30pm to 8.30pm with laser show, free glow sticks and Lee Butler & In Demand Radio’s Steve Weaver. Book here.

Saturday night out at Seel St Venue
