Comprising more than 30,000 hand-crafted tiles, the spectacular mosaic is celebrated for its intricate patterns, rich colours and classical motifs. A masterpiece of art and engineering, it has captivated generations of visitors and remains remarkably well preserved more than 150 years after its creation.

Adding to the experience, a special programme of events will run alongside the reveal, giving visitors even more opportunities to explore the history, craftsmanship and significance of this iconic Liverpool landmark. From guided tours and talks to unique cultural experiences, there will be something for all ages to enjoy.

Whether you're a history enthusiast, architecture lover or simply looking for an unforgettable day out, this limited-time reveal is not to be missed.
