As one of England’s greatest cities, you’ll never be short of things to do in Liverpool. Some cultural highlights include theatre, music and comedy events, art galleries and museums. In winter, you can’t miss the Liverpool Christmas Market, a fun event to experience with family and friends.
The Christmas market is located in front of St George’s Hall. An absolutely stunning example of neoclassical architecture, it’s a wonderful backdrop to the festive events at its door. Visit inside the building if you get the chance.

Hotels near Liverpool Christmas Market
Liverpool is a big city with many interesting and diverse neighbourhoods. But if you want to stay near the Christmas market then I suggest staying somewhere between St George’s Quarter (the Christmas market location) and Liverpool Waterfront.
I suggest staying at the Hard Days Night Hotel. Yes, this is a Beatles-themed hotel, but it’s done really well and the memorabilia is not intrusive at all. Generally, I recommend it for its central location, close to many sights and places to eat out.
