Liverpool Β· 2027 planning guide
Planning ahead for International Beatleweek 2027? Official 2027 festival dates and the full programme have not yet been published. This page keeps the useful planning information in one place and will be updated as confirmed details are released.
What is confirmed so far βThe official 2027 International Beatleweek dates have not yet been announced.
The official festival website is still showing its 2026 programme, so we are not carrying forward or guessing dates for 2027.
International Beatleweek is Liverpoolβs annual celebration of The Beatles, centred on live music and events in the city where the band began.
The Cavern Club is at the heart of the festival, with additional events taking place at venues around Liverpool.
The Cavern Club marks its 70th anniversary in 2027.
A wider anniversary programme is planned across the year, with further details still to be announced.
16 January to 31 October 2027
The Museum of Liverpool will host 70 Years of The Cavern Club, a landmark exhibition created with the Cavern Club to mark 70 years since the venue first opened on Mathew Street.
This is a confirmed 2027 event rather than a Beatleweek programme announcement, but it could make a useful addition to a Beatles-focused Liverpool trip during the year.
Beatleweek schedules can be busy, so a compact sightseeing tour can be an easy way to see key Beatles locations without using a full day.

Check availability for your own travel dates once your 2027 plans are taking shape.
Check tour availability βTours of Liverpool may earn a commission when you book through selected links, at no extra cost to you.
Until the official 2027 festival dates are announced, avoid relying on assumed dates. If you want to reserve accommodation early, a flexible or refundable booking gives you more room to adjust later.
Central Liverpool puts Mathew Street, the Cavern Quarter, the waterfront and many major visitor attractions within easy reach.
Once the 2027 programme is published, leave some breathing room between ticketed events for the Cavern Quarter, Beatles sightseeing and the waterfront.
Allow time to explore Mathew Street and the surrounding Cavern Quarter, particularly if your visit includes live music at the Cavern Club.
Walking, bus and private tours offer different ways to see Beatles locations around the city.
The waterfront is an easy addition to a city-centre visit, with Pier Head, museums and river experiences close together.
