About this activity

Liverpool made the music the world still listens to — and the city has plenty more to say beyond the Fab Four.

This app-led scavenger hunt takes you through Liverpool on foot, using phone-based riddles to guide you from one landmark to the next. No guide, no fixed start time.

• Solve clues at the Beatles Statue, the Cavern Club, and St George's Hall — pop legend, live music history, and Victorian civic grandeur in one walk

• Start when you arrive and go at whatever pace suits the group

• Perfect for families, music fans, history lovers, and groups of any size

Available in 24 languages including English, French, German, Spanish, Italian — see the full list when booking and choose yours when you start the game in the app.

Around 2 hours - any group size.

Even non-Beatles fans find Liverpool impossible to resist.
