Liverpool BID brings city businesses together to stage a mega Student Takeover Week

Students in the city are about to get an even bigger welcome back as Liverpool BID gets the discounts in!

Over 50 Liverpool BID Company businesses in the city centre – including some of the city’s most popular shops, bars and restaurants – have come together for Student Takeover Week, welcoming the thousands of new students to the city with one week of great savings and events. Taking place from Monday 25th September until Sunday 1st October 2017, students can feast their eyes, ears and stomachs on tonnes of great offers.

From the independents on Bold Street, including News from Nowhere and Maray, to the cafes and restaurants of the Castle Street area, including La Viña and Changos Burritos, to national brands on the high street such as Boots, LUSH Spa and Paperchase in Metquarter – there’s a saving to be made!

Playhouse and Everyman Theatres are even giving culture-vultures the opportunity to see some of the best shows in town with its £5 ticket membership scheme! Watch above for a sneak peek at just how amazing our home-grown, scouse talent is as The Royal takes to the stage and our Jay chats with star, Lindzi Germain.

Dom Jones, director and co-founder, Maray, Bold Street, who are offering some delicious offers on its lunch and Meat Free Monday menus, said: “Student Takeover Week is a wonderful opportunity to throw the spotlight on the amazing shops and restaurants located in the BID areas of Bold Street, the high street, Metquarter, on and around Castle Street, and further out to the Commercial District. We know students’ pockets aren’t deep so it’s a chance to help them out a bit with a saving or two, and at the same time introduce them to what Liverpool has to offer!”

Bill Addy, chief executive, Liverpool BID Company, said: “Liverpool BID Company has such a fantastic variety of retail and leisure businesses that really demonstrate why Liverpool is such an incredible place to visit and study here. It’s great to showcase our members with Student Takeover Week – and hopefully they will all be making a lot of new fans in the next week and beyond!”

All offers are valid only at businesses stated in the accompanying leaflet from Monday, September 25 to Sunday, October 1, 2017. Student ID required. Terms and conditions apply.
