Unique Date Ideas | What To Do In Liverpool
Coffee and a chat? Netflix and chill? It's time to get more creative with your date ideas! We've been in Liverpool since 1999, and we've visited all of the best venues. Here are the greatest and most unusual date destinations in our city.
1. The Tower Experience at the Anglican Cathedral
Have a super romantic evening gazing at the twinkling lights of the city from 500ft above sea level. Getting to the rooftop will test your nerves, but it's so worth it. As you ascend the staircase that winds around the inside of the tower like a helter-skelter, you'll pass by the giant cathedral bells and the ancient cloisters and corridors of the cathedral. Sure to be a dramatic and unforgettable date night! More info available here.
2. Bouldering at the Climbing Hangar
If you're an adventurer at heart and want to put your date to the test, why not try bouldering at the Liverpool Climbing Hangar? Perfect for hours of fun, flailing and falling. And there's even a great cafe where you can grab a coffee and a bite to eat! Grab your chalk bag and check them out here.
3. A Night at the Liverpool Philharmonic
You might as well start as you mean to go on. Take your beau out for a romantic evening of music performed by the UK's oldest Orchestra. The Liverpool Phil is a grand old venue with a varied catalogue of events. Why not go to a one-woman show, a tribute act or a night of smooth jazz? They won't forget the time an Elvis impersonator sang 'Falling In Love With You' to them quickly! More info here.
4. A Stroll Around the Albert Dock
Take an evening stroll around the Royal Albert Dock and maybe stop for a ride on the Mersey Wheel. Grab a bite to eat in one of the restaurants or stop for a drink in a bar. If all goes well, why not come back for a second date and add a lovelock to the railings at the Pier Head?
If you want to break away from the city then you can always head to one of the two great beaches nearby. Formby is stunning at all times of the year and in all types of weather. Spend your day running up and down the sand dunes or head to Crosby and visit the famous Antony Gormley’s, Another Place on the beach.
5. Crazy Golf
