Liverpool has kicked off a landmark music initiative, Liverpool in 360, ahead of what promises to be a thrilling year of live performances, capturing artists in stunning settings across the city.

Liverpool in 360 pays homage to Liverpool’s legendary musical heritage and showcases both rising stars and established acts in some of the city’s most iconic locations.

The city’s deep-rooted musical heritage continues to inspire and resonate across a truly unique mix of artists and performance spaces.

They include tech house innovator Sosa at Oh Me Oh My rooftop garden with the famous Royal Liver Building as a backdrop, up and coming indie rockers Keyside at St George’s Hall, and award-winning British neo-jazz singer-songwriter Ni Maxine at Royal Albert Dock, while the Royal Liverpool Philharmonic Orchestra’s Equilibrium Quartet played at Camp and Furnace in the Baltic Triangle.

Liverpool was also recently named as the UN’s first Accelerator City for Climate Action in recognition of its superb efforts to rapidly decarbonise the live music, TV and Film production sectors which account for a large part of the city’s economy.

To celebrate, there will be a three-night live music series at M&S Bank Liverpool Arena from 28 – 30 November in collaboration with Massive Attack, ACT 1.5 and SJM concerts that will showcase innovations in sustainability and the smart design of live music events with IDLES, Massive Attack and Nile Rodgers set to play.

Kevin McManus, Head of UNESCO City of Music, said:

“It’s a really exciting time for music across Liverpool City Region. Building on from the success of hosting The Eurovision Song Contest in 2023 to welcoming Taylor Swift to Anfield Stadium and Tom Jones to Salt and Tar in Bootle this summer, Liverpool and the region is the place to be for huge names, up-and-coming artists and world-class events.

“Liverpool in 360 captures the essence of our city’s dynamic music scene, celebrating a legacy that spans decades and musical genres.

“By bringing some of our emerging artists to iconic locations across Liverpool, this initiative offers audiences a unique, immersive look at our musical offering while shining a spotlight on new talent and innovation.

“It’s an invitation to experience Liverpool’s vibrant culture and rich history in a whole new way—and to see why Liverpool remains a global hub for music lovers everywhere.”
