British Music Experience

One of the trip extras for the Liverpool social weekend

Take a trip down a musical memory Lane

The permanent exhibition dedicated to the history of popular British Music opened at Liverpool's Cunard Building in March 2017. 

State of the art effects and iconic memorabilia will show how rock, pop, dance and other genres were formed and have influenced the last seventy years of British culture. 

We will take you all the way back to 1945 and bring you up to the present day through the different musical genres. You will eavesdrop on interviews with the stars, witness amazing artefacts “come to life”, record songs, learn instruments, bust moves on the dancefloor and immerse yourself in our live music experience. 

As you progress through the 8 ‘edge zones’, you will explore the rich heritage of British music against a social and political context. 

Hand-held interactive guides will allow you to get a deeper insight into what happened in each of the musical eras. The Rich mix of audio-visual content is enhanced with voice over, subtitles and provision for portable hearing loops.
