International Beatleweek 2026 will feature dozens of artists playing in various venues in Liverpool city centre. With the exception of Port Sunlight (public or private transport available) all venues are within a 10-15 minute stroll from The Cavern Club.
Walking from venue to venue means you’ll also have the chance to see the other attractions that Liverpool has to offer such as its two great cathedrals, The Three Graces on the waterfront, as well as hundreds of characterful, pubs, bars, and eateries.
The Epstein Theatre
Steeped in charm and rich theatrical heritage, The Epstein Theatre is one of Liverpool’s most beloved cultural venues. Named in honour of Beatles manager Brian Epstein, the historic Hanover Street theatre blends intimate atmosphere with striking period architecture, creating a perfect setting for live performance.
For the first time in International Beatleweek history, the festival will take to this iconic stage in 2026—bringing world-class Beatle music and storytelling to a venue deeply connected to the band’s legacy and the city’s vibrant artistic heart.
St Peters Tavern is located on Liverpool’s Georgian Seel street, set in the awe inspiring 1788 consecrated St Peter’s church.
The church, having ceased operating as a place of worship over 30 years ago, was first developed as a venue in 2005 and has been through many incarnations. Recently reopened under new management, their mission was to refurb, renovate, restore and honour its beautiful original 18th century interior by re-imagining it as a new/old beer hall and grand public house, befitting of the golden age real pubs in the Victorian and Edwardian eras.
Expect true pub honesty, vintage glamour, and 16 cask ales, sourced primarily from local brewers and of course, during International Beatleweek – pure rock n roll!
