Celebrating 120 Years of Liverpool Olympia: A Landmark of Legacy and Live Entertainment

A heartfelt Happy 120th Anniversary celebration to our wonderful partner venue – Liverpool Olympia.

A​ cherished gem in Liverpool’s cultural landscape for decades, and designed by the legendary Frank Matcham – the venue has welcomed generations through its doors. From Houdini to the Beatles and unforgettable performances to iconic live music events, it’s a space filled with history, heart, and the shared spirit of creativity that brings the city together.

Ghostwriter was delighted to programme a special pair of shows with Liverpool legends Shack hosting their reformation gig on Friday 25th April and acclaimed British rock band Embrace headlining a milestone event on Saturday 26th April also featuring an incredible line-up with special guests The Bluetones, The Real People, and Rats.

Carl Bathgate, Commercial Director at Ghostwriter, said: “Liverpool Olympia is more than just a venue – it’s a living, breathing part of the city’s cultural fabric. To see it thriving 120 years on is both inspiring and a testament to its enduring significance.

He added: “We’re honoured to work alongside such a historic landmark and look forward to watching its remarkable legacy continue to grow.”

From the grandeur of its early theatre days to the pulse of modern live entertainment, Liverpool Olympia continues to bring people together. We’re so proud to work alongside such an inspiring venue – here’s to 120 years of unforgettable memories, with many more to come.
