A big city with a community feel, Liverpool is famed for its welcoming residents, rich maritime heritage and of course, that band. It's also an incredibly student-friendly city, with a relatively compact centre, plenty of cultural opportunities and of course a thriving nightlife at some of the UK's best venues such as Camp and Furnace, Constellations, 24 Kitchen Street and The Buyers Club. The city also boasts an array of feature nights from the country's top brands like Circus, as well as live music promoters Harvest Sun and EVOL.
