Liverpool is bursting with culture and<br />
heritage with its maritime and musical<br />
history, legendary football teams, the<br />
greatest jump race and the largest number<br />
of galleries and museums outside of the<br />
capital. 2018 is the 10 year anniversary<br />
of being crowned European Capital of<br />
Culture, a pivotal moment in Liverpool's<br />
history which saw the year-long<br />
programme of events bring bumper visitor<br />
numbers and a multi-million pound boost<br />
to the economy. #Liverpool2018 will see<br />
the stunning tall ships regatta return as<br />
part of a programme of music, festivals,<br />
food and performance throughout the<br />
year.<br />
Liverpool's Albert Dock will be hosting<br />
many events and attractions but it's a<br />
fantastic destination in its own right.<br />
Originally used by sailing ships carrying<br />
cargos of cotton, brandy and sugar, the<br />
dock remained fully functional until the<br />
1970s. Today, the iconic architecture is<br />
the setting for a vibrant arts and music<br />
scene as well as being home to museums<br />
devoted to the city's maritime history,<br />
including its links to the ill-fated Titanic,<br />
and historical and contemporary slavery.<br />
On a lighter note, Tate Liverpool, which<br />
celebrates its 30th anniversary, hosts<br />
national and international exhibitions,<br />
including photography, sculpture and<br />
installations.<br />

be seen at the Word Museum until October.<br />
Just a few minutes from Albert Dock is<br />
the British Music Experience which tells<br />
the story of music through costumes,<br />
instruments and performance. The Spice<br />
Girls, Freddie Mercury, Oasis and the Sex<br />
Pistols feature as well as The Beatles,<br />
although true Beatle fans will need to head<br />
into the city to experience The Beatles<br />
Story which starts, where else but The<br />
Cavern Club.<br />
Dining at Albert Dock offers great choice.<br />
A particular favourite is the pirate themed<br />
Smugglers Cove which has a deli style<br />
menu rotisserie and BBQ with the bar<br />
offering world famous rums, a rum cocktail<br />
menu and fine champagnes along with<br />
more traditional ale, cider and beer.<br />
There is live music every night or head<br />
to Liverpool Comedy Central at the dock<br />
for laughter every Thursday, Friday and<br />
Saturday night.<br />
If you're staying the night you will need a<br />
hotel! Whether you bed down at the dock<br />
or opt for a City Centre slumber, we have a<br />

The Grand National takes place at<br />
Aintree, Liverpool, on Saturday 14 <strong>April</strong>.<br />
At four and half miles with 30 fences<br />
over two laps, a prize fund of £1million<br />
and a TV audience of 10 million, it's the<br />
big one. Usually attracting a field of 40<br />
runners and riders ready to race and<br />
tackle iconic fences like The Chair at over<br />
5 foot, Becher's Brook and Canal Turn, it’s<br />
the race where legends are created and<br />
history is written.<br />
With this famous course as the<br />
backdrop for meetings and events,<br />
inspiring delegates with tales of<br />
fearless determination and triumph is<br />
an each-way win for both organisers<br />
and attendees. There's a choice of five<br />
self-contained grandstands available for<br />
staging a meeting or corporate event<br />
for up to 500 delegates and with acres<br />
of lush green parkland, launching a new<br />
product or challenging the team with<br />
some outdoor competition are perfectly<br />
catered for. Aintree also provides a<br />
dramatic backdrop for receptions and<br />
banquets and with good motorway and<br />
railway networks, the famous course is<br />
easy to reach.<br />
A conference in the grandstand, exhibition<br />
on the concourse or team-building in<br />
the parade ring, it's all possible at Ascot<br />
Racecourse in Berkshire. With close<br />
connections to the British Royal Family<br />
(the course was founded in 1711 by Queen<br />
Ann), Royal Ascot is the centre-piece of the<br />
course's flat and jump year with HM The<br />
Queen, The Prince of Wales and younger<br />
royals all regulars in the royal enclosure.<br />
Also home to Royal Ascot Cricket Club<br />
whose grounds are in the middle of the<br />
racecourse, Ascot was the setting for a<br />
scene in the musical My Fair Lady and has<br />
welcomed the nation's favourite secret<br />
agent to the course in A View to Kill and<br />
Skyfall.<br />
With stunning parkland views across<br />
Windsor Great Park and the Berkshire<br />
countryside, Ascot adds prestige to any<br />
event with its fine facilities and superb<br />
Royal standard service. A choice of over 300<br />
meeting rooms is available to organisers<br />
along with 4,000sqm of exhibition<br />
space in the 27 metre high atrium of the<br />
Grandstand Galleria. Large dining areas<br />
and event spaces for up to 3,000 guests<br />
plus additional areas around the course,<br />
such as the Old Paddock Lawns, Silver<br />
Ring and Parade Ring, provide even more<br />
opportunities for outdoor event space.<br />
