This grand neoclassical court hall has been the centre of civic life in Liverpool since the 19th century and features an intimate concert venue.
St. George’s Hall has watched modern Liverpool transform around it for 200 years. The building’s neoclassical styling and magnificent interior make it one of the finest architectural attractions in the United Kingdom, drawing visitors from around the world. St. George’s Hall has housed the law courts of Liverpool since it opened in 1854. A small concert hall within the larger building opened two years later. The hall remains a popular location for concerts and performances in the city. Visit the hall’s Heritage Centre to learn about the building’s history or attend a guided tour to visit the hall’s chambers, concert hall and cells.
If you visit St. George’s Hall in summer, you’re in luck. During the summer months, a protective wooden covering is removed from the floor and visitors can see the 30,000 spectacularly colourful Minton tiles that make up the mosaic underfoot. The mosaic’s initial opening brought 100,000 people to the hall, and the grand unveiling remains a big annual event to this day. The hall hosts a selection of cultural events each year, such as music concerts or international exhibitions in the hall’s gallery space.
Discover St. George’s Hall’s history at the Heritage Centre, an on-site museum dedicated to informing visitors about the hall through photographs, videos and historic artefacts. Go on a guided tour to fully explore the hall and to see its grand vaulted ceiling and superb concert organ. The organ is one of the largest in the United Kingdom, featuring 7,000 pipes.
St. George’s Hall is centrally located on Lime Street and can easily be reached on foot from several locations around the city’s centre. A metro station can be found nearby, or pay a small fee to park on the streets around the hall. Visit St. George’s Hall any day of the week for a small admission price.
