5 years ago
Liverpool International Music Festival with Liverpool Gin (LIMF) 2019 is just over a week away, but some city venues will start the party a week early as part of the official LIMF Fringe.
The LIMF Fringe kicks off tonight (Friday) and will see a number of pubs and clubs programme live music, with a focus on supporting local talent, thanks to some additional LIMF funding.
They include The Handyman Pub on Smithdown Road which will start the Fringe proceedings this evening from 8pm, Sound Food and Drink on Duke Street, the Craft Taproom and Kelly’s Dispensary and Frank’s Bar all on Smithdown Road, Brick Street in the Baltic and The Zanzibar Club on Seel Street.
And it’s not all about the evening. On Sunday 21 July, Otterspool Adventure is hosting ‘Otterspool Rocks’, using the LIMF funding for local bands to treat families to a fantastic live music session.
