Located within Liverpool's historic Albert Dock, the Beatles Story is a unique visitor attraction that will transport you on an exciting and atmospheric journey into the life, times, culture and music of the Beatles.
See how four young lads from Liverpool were propelled to the dizzy heights of worldwide fame and fortune to become the greatest band of all time. Hear the story unfold through the "Living History" audio guide narrated by John Lennon's sister, Julia and view some amazing and rare Beatles artefacts along the way.
The Beatles Story is continually improving and updating its products and services so you have the best possible experience at our visitor attraction. 2008 saw us undergo a large expansion programme, which has doubled the size of Beatles Story!
The expansion includes:
- 'Going Solo' - a set of rooms celebrating the solo careers of all of The Beatles.
- The Discovery Zone - a children's interactive area - part of the Beatles Story's commitment to life-long learning.
- A "family friendly" version of the Living History audio guide.
- A new temporary exhibition space to host themed exhibitions throughout the year.
- A Starbucks café and relaxation area to complete the experience.
If this wasn't enough the Beatles Story is due to expand even further in 2009!
From April the world famous visitor attraction is set to open additional facilities in the Ferry Terminal at Pier Head in Liverpool. The Beatles Story will take the first floor of the terminal with a whole range of exciting attractions planned!
Look out for our amazing new Fab4D cinema experience! This will take the audience on a 4 dimensional journey through the music of the Beatles with a few hidden surprises on the way!
There will also be a new special exhibition area, set to host an exciting schedule of must-see world class exhibitions.
In addition to this there will be two more shops which include Beatles goodies and Liverpool souvenirs.
Whilst visiting the Ferry Terminal visitors will also be able to relax in the café on the ground floor, or sample the food in the terrace restaurant, before hopping on the Mersey Ferry.
