From now until October 31, you can go on a ‘world tour’ discovering gorgeous globe sculptures like the one on College Lane. It’s part of The World Reimagined, a national art project that aims to transform how we understand the transatlantic slave trade to create a future for racial justice.

Tickle the Ivories

…or just listen to some of the amazing pianists who will fill Liverpool ONE with the sound of music. Back for its 12^th year, Tickle the Ivories is set to bring more than 100 performers to the shopping and leisure complex. You can find the free-to-use pianos at the bottom of Sugar House Steps by John Lewis & Partners, South John Street, Peter’s Square, College Lane, and The Galleria by the entrance of ODEON, and you can book a slot or find out who’s performing when on the Liverpool ONE website.
