Come inside the Magical Beatles Museum on Mathew Street
6 years ago
Mathew Street, one of the most famous streets on the planet where you can grab a selfie with Cilla, gaze at the Wall of Fame and of course enjoy amazing live music at the home of the Beatles, The Cavern.
As well as all of the above you can now also take a trip back in time and experience the magic of the Beatles in their own dedicated Mathew Street museum. Watch a move as we take you inside!
The Magical Beatles Museum is expanding later this year to open a new café and bar after enjoying a bumper first six months. The Magical Beatles Museum was opened in July and hopes the new facilities, together with the relocation of the Liverpool Tourist Information Centre to its Matthew Street building in November, will further boost visitor numbers.
The attraction was launched by Roag Best, brother of âfifth Beatleâ Pete Best, in July 2018 and has since enjoyed increasing numbers and rave reviews.
Having secured and renovated the five-story Victorian Warehouse where the museum is based, Best now hopes to boost visitors by at least 70 per cent over the next 12 months, creating 20 new jobs.
The concept takes visitors on an interactive tour of Beatles history, with Roagâs 1,200 item personal collection telling the story each step of the way. Rare finds on display include Pete Bestâs drumkit, George Harrisonâs Futurama guitar and John Lennonâs Sgt. Pepper medals.
Best said: âGrowing up, I wasnât aware of how famous the Beatles truly were, I just loved spending time with my four friends â John, Paul, George and Ringo.
âA lot of items that Iâve held on to from this period are now of huge interest to fans, and itâs great to be able to give people a unique insight into the bandâs history. Weâve been overwhelmed by the interest from tourists over the past six months and itâs only set to increase going forward!
