Liverpool Cathedral has been  delighted to have received a Tripexpert 2023 Experts’ Choice Award.

The award recognizes Liverpool Cathedral as one of the highest rated attractions in Liverpool. Fewer than 2% of businesses receive an award.

Experts’ Choice is the only industry accolade based on professional reviews. Their sources are travel guides, magazines and newspapers; relying only on content written by people who have travelled extensively in the country that they’re covering and who can provide reliable and unbiased advice.

Paul Smith, Director of Enterprise at Liverpool Cathedral, said:

“We are enormously grateful to Tripexpert for the Experts’ Choice Award.  This latest accolade boosts Liverpool Cathedral’s reputation as a fabulous place to visit, following on from a series of other award wins in recent years.  Highest praise needs to go to our amazing staff and volunteers who work tirelessly to ensure that we deliver an excellent experience for all those who come through our doors.”

Here’s 5 reasons you need to visit this iconic building:

Mind-Blowing Architecture

This place is an architectural masterpiece.

In 1901 the competition to design Liverpool Cathedral was opened. In 1903, the winning concept was submitted by 22-year-old Architect, Sir Giles Gilbert Scott. Surviving two world wars, on 25 October 1978, work was finally complete, with an opening service attended by Her Majesty.

Sadly, Sir Giles never lived to see his magnificent design in all its glory, passing away in 1961.

Liverpool Cathedral is one of the largest religious buildings in the world, and it’s the largest cathedral in the UK. Its awe-inspiring size and grandeur make it a true architectural marvel.

Stunning Stained Glass Windows

The Cathedral is home to the largest and heaviest set of bells in the world, and its collection of stunning stained glass windows is nothing short of breathtaking. These windows showcase intricate designs and vibrant colours that tell various stories.

What a View!

The tower of Liverpool Cathedral offers an unbeatable panoramic view of the city. If you’re up for the climb, you’ll be rewarded with a breathtaking vista that stretches as far as the eye can see.

Art Installations

Currently exhibiting Identity, Liverpool Cathedral’s largest installation to date, ‘Identity’ introduces seven illuminated columns, suspended over the Well. It has also been home to Gaia, the floating earth, and also Museum of the Moon!

Eat at The Welsford Bistro

The Welsford Bistro gives a rare opportunity to dine in an independent restaurant inside a world-famous iconic building. Within Liverpool Cathedral, it serves delicious food at breakfast, lunch and dinner – including the best scouse in Liverpool according to Google! – using only local suppliers.

Visitors can also enjoy coffee and cake on the terrace overlooking St James Gardens or while taking in the incredible atmosphere of the main cathedral.
