Arts Bar Baltic is a lively, creative space inside the Elevator Studios building on Parliament Street, in the heart of Liverpool's Baltic Triangle. It opens early as a café and coffee bar serving breakfast, lunch and cocktails, then transforms each evening into a buzzing live-music and events venue. The stage hosts something almost every night — open mic nights, single launches, DJ showcases, exhibitions and art classes — making it a genuine grassroots platform for emerging Merseyside artists. With a small-room capacity of around 80, it offers an intimate setting where new performers and audiences mix closely.
