Gay Scene

The gay scene in Liverpool is not so varied or wild as you will find on Manchester or Leeds, but there are interesting places where the scene is great. For instance, the Masquerade, at the Cumberland Street, is one of the most popular gay bars in the city with a great ambience and occasional cabaret shows. One of the oldest gay bars in the city is The Lisbon on the corner of Stanley Street and Victoria Street, its main attraction is the legendary pool table. Another traditional bar is The Curzon on Temple Lane just off Victoria Street; it's a particular favourite with the men.

Music

Liverpool is famous for live music acts, visitors can’t leave the city it without go to the famous Cavern Club on Mathew Street where The Beatles first made their name. The club is not the original, is a perfect replica built on the same place after the original was demolished in 1973. Now, the Cavern Club is a perfect place to hear live music performed by local bands.
Other interesting place with a good status for its live music programme is the Zanzibar Club on Seel Street. The Royal Court is other great venue for live music with a friendly bar and a great ambience; it is located in Williamson Square. Another popular venue is the Carling Academy Liverpool that attracts some famous music’s names; you can find it by Lime Street Station.
