Liverpool Cathedral has achieved yet another remarkable milestone by winning the Tripadvisor Travellers’ Choice Award for 2024.
This prestigious accolade is awarded based on reviews and ratings from travellers worldwide visiting Liverpool Cathedral from the past year.
The Travellers’ Choice Award is given annually by Tripadvisor to recognise the favourite destinations, hotels, restaurants, and attractions as voted by real travellers. Based on a year of reviews and ratings, the winners highlight the most memorable and positively reviewed experiences shared by global tourists.
The Very Revd Dr Dean Sue Jones, Dean of Liverpool, said:
“We are thrilled and honoured to receive the 2024 Travellers’ Choice Award, placing Liverpool Cathedral in the top 10% of visitor attractions worldwide.
“This recognition is especially meaningful as we celebrate our centenary this year. Thank you to everyone who takes the time to encounter our beautiful building and continues to support us.”
Sharing the news on social media, Liverpool Cathedral said:
“Thanks to your amazing reviews on Tripadvisor we’ve received a 2024 Travellers’ Award!
“This rates us in the top 10% of visitor attractions worldwide. If you’ve taken the time to review – thank you!
“We’re so pleased to be a Travellers Choice, this is the perfect way to celebrate our centenary!”
As the Cathedral marks its centenary year, this award adds to the celebrations of its rich history and cultural significance. Although the construction of this iconic building began in 1904, it was officially consecrated in 1924.
The design, conceptualised by the then 22-year-old architect Sir Giles Gilbert Scott, has withstood the test of time, surviving two world wars, and was completed in 1978.
Liverpool Cathedral is more than just an architectural marvel; it is a vibrant community hub and home to extraordinary artwork and annual events.
Welcoming over 500,000 visitors annually, it stands as the largest cathedral in Britain and the fifth largest in Europe. It also houses the largest pipe organ in the UK.
Situated 500ft above sea level, Liverpool Cathedral offers visitors the unique Tower Experience, providing 360Âş open-air views of the city and access to The Bell Chamber.
This year, it’s not just the breathtaking views or the grand organ that draws visitors but also the acknowledgement from real travellers, celebrating their experiences at this incredible site.
In a year of celebration for Liverpool Cathedral, the Tripadvisor Travellers’ Choice Award 2024 is a testament to its enduring appeal and the unforgettable experiences it offers to visitors from around the globe.
