Top Rated Concerts and Shows in Sutton Weaver

"Bluecoat, Bluecoat Chambers, School Lane, Liverpool, L1 3BX - Visit now. The oldest building in the city centre, the Bluecoat was once a school, and is now one of the city’s liveliest arts hubs, an art gallery showing work by major national and international artists that also stages regular performances, readings and more. Clustered around its front courtyard are independent craft and design shops, while at the back you’ll find the highly-rated Bluecoat Display Centre."

Built in brick, painted with stone dressing, featured slate roof, and with an H-shaped design – Bluecoat Chambers was built between 1716 and 1717 as a charity school and then later on turned into an art center. It is one of the oldest buildings in central Liverpool and the most well-known in the area too, because of its striking architecture."

"While not necessarily an independent shop on its own, The Bluecoat School is more than worthy of a mention. Famously known as Liverpool’s creative hub, The Bluecoat is home to a range of indie shops and performance spaces. It’s well worth a visit."

"As far as theatrical experiences go, nothing comes close to the thrill of catching a live show. Be it a drama, a comedy act, a musical, Shakespeare or some combination of them all, Manchester’s thriving arts scene make it one of the best places to take in theatre. The Royal Exchange building and its theatre have survived a lot, having been badly damaged during both World War II and the Manchester bombing in 1996."

"The May Blitz of 1941 saw St Luke’s church forever changed when a bomb landed right on top of it’s roof. Over time, the city has lovingly restored it back to life and it now plays host to everything from weddings, to gigs, to farmers markets and cinema screenings. The church itself and the gardens around it are a total treat for the eye."

"St Luke’s which is popularly known as the bombed-out church was destroyed during World War II. It has no ceiling and plants are growing inside. You and your loved one can find tranquility in the city center there. It also serves as a memorial to the people who lost their lives during the world war."

"Also known as St. Luke’s Church, the Bombed-Out Church lost its roof during the World War II blitz and has now been transformed into a wedding venue, café and a great spot for pictures. The church is incredible to look around and is also filled with so much history."

"Set in the historic heart of town is the Storyhouse building which houses, not only a library and restaurant but a theater and cinema too. A very popular place, it puts on lots of excellent plays and performances with countless cultural events and films also shown during the year. Since its opening in 1936 as an Odeon cinema, the Art Deco building has been at the center of cultural life in the city."

"Storyhouse is Chester’s theatre, cinema and arts centre housed in a rejuvenated 1930s art deco Odeon cinema building. The Storyhouse’s theatre transforms from an 800 seat proscenium (the Touring Stage) to a 500 seat thrust (the Storyhouse stage)."

"Storyhouse is the place to visit to get your arts and culture fix, including a library, theatre, cinema, community hub, cultural centre and restaurant. Take a look at what events are coming up during your stay."

"The building of the Dancehouse Theatre has had a fascinating history full of transformation, morphing from meeting halls to a multi-screen cinema complex. In the 1990s it was restored to its former Art Deco splendour and was reopened as The Dancehouse Theatre, home to the Northern Ballet School. While the venue presents a broad range of performances including comedy, music and drama, dance lies at the heart of this North West icon."

"Contact Theatre will be heading out across Manchester this summer for a series of outdoor performances.

"🙌 Need to know: The Arndale Market is exactly where you’d expect it to be, within the Arndale Centre in Manchester city centre. There’s tons of food stalls to try out – whether you’re on the go or fancy trying something new, and you’ll probably stumble upon the fish market too. Salt & Pepper MCR is a real highlight, but there’s a little something for everyone – including sweets, baked goods, Mexican food, sandwiches and Chinese food."

"Every lunch break, it’s been consistently there for us, and over the years, it’s kind of acted like a springboard of success for local food vendors. Both Viet Shack and Salt & Pepper have gone leaps and bounds since opening up on the market, with the likes of Just Natas, Piazza MCR, and Dunkin’ Burgers currently enjoying residence at the busy foodie spot. Arndale Market, 49 High St, M4 3AH."

"CFCCA is the UK leader in Chinese visual culture, with a reputation for debut solo exhibitions and a roster of internationally-renowned artists; impressive considering that, three decades ago, it was just a series of events in Manchester’s Chinatown. As Manchester’s Chinese population is second only to London’s, the centre’s heritage is particularly important; now represented in a new archive and library. Best feature: A vibrant events schedule, spanning film screenings to workshops and even Mandarin lessons"

"CFCCA reopens with a duo of exhibitions investigating and unpicking themes of belonging, identity and citizenship in a globalised and hyper-connected society. Housed in CFCCA’s Northern Quarter galleries, the exhibitions are just a few minutes’ walk from the Arndale Shopping Centre. Multiplicities in Flux brings together works by contemporary artists Grace Lau and Eelyn Lee in a dialogue around identity and belonging."

"Manchester's Centre for Chinese Contemporary Art will reopen both of its galleries on Wednesday May 19. Exhibitions Multiplicities in Flux and Autopsy of a Home, which originally opened in October, will be back until June 13. Booking is advised at cfcca.org.uk but walk-ups are welcome."

"A glorious sister venue to London's Natural History Museum (both designed by Liverpool-born architect Alfred Waterhouse), it's worth a visit to the University of Liverpool's gallery and museum for its exterior alone. The Grade II-listed building's gothic terracotta design led to the coining of the term "red-brick" university and is a shining example of Victorian prowess; more so now after a recent £8.6m refurb. Expect a really creepy museum (fossils, taxidermy, skeletons and curios from the university's 130-year history), a special collections gallery (including the largest display of paintings and prints by wildlife artist John James Audubon outside the US), and a regularly revolving programme of contemporary art exhibitions."

"Artworks illustrating the ever-present tensions between the natural world and the human race, including The Eruption of the Soufriere Mountains in the Island of St Vincent by JW Turner. A New Beauty: Romanticism in Art 1880-1920. Display exploring the evolving ways that physical attractiveness was depicted from the late 1800s."

"Good news for anyone who missed seeing Don McCullin’s incredible photographs of Liverpool and beyond because that exhibition has been extended until September 5 and can be booked now. You can also book tickets for free displays including Aliza Nisenbaum’s portraits of Merseyside’s NHS workers, the Biennial and two new displays of the Tate collection. Reopening is being planned for May 17."
