Monarchs Quay, Merseyside L34FPFew venues around the world can match the architecture and facilities at the Arena and Convention Centre Liverpool. Both a stunning landmark and one of Europe’s finest conference venues, and designed as the centerpiece to Liverpool’s European Capital of Culture Award in 2008, it sits on Kings Waterfront adjacent to the Grade I listed Albert Dock and the UNESCO World Heritage Pier Head. Built below ground level to provide a breathtaking view of the Mersey, the ACC was designed to evoke a butterfly over water and has become one of Liverpool’s most iconic buildings.
But ACC Liverpool is not simply about cutting edge design. It is also a conference and entertainment centre built on state of the art technology and is one of the largest UK conference venues, capable of holding multiple conferences and concerts simultaneously. The Echo Arena holds 11,000, whilst the award winning BT convention centre includes a 1350 seat auditorium.
The ACC has hosted everything from MTV Music Awards to BBC Sports Personality of the Year and has welcomed hundreds of the world’s biggest musical acts from Bob Dylan to Diana Ross, Muse to Oasis, Coldplay to Backstreet Boys, Lady Gaga to Beyoncé and from the Arctic Monkeys to Morrissey. It is also home to the annual Liverpool Summer Pops Festival. It has won CONFEX's coveted ‘Best UK Venue’ two years in a row.
More than a conference and entertainment venue, the ACC is now part of the beating heart of Liverpool. Visitors look out over the world famous Mersey waterfront between the Albert Dock, Pier Head and Three Graces and Liverpool’s hundreds of bars, restaurants and hotels are only minutes away. Liverpool’s renaissance continues apace and the ACC is an exceptional venue that enhances this magical city.
