About The Bombed Out Church

The Bombed Out Church books Indie, Rock, Electronic, Festival acts. Both original music and covers are welcome. This listing is part of the Liverpool venue directory.

The Bombed Out Church (St Luke's) is one of Liverpool's most atmospheric live spaces — a Grade II listed church left as a roofless shell after WWII bombing, now run as an open-air arts venue in the city centre. It hosts outdoor concerts, gigs, theatre, film screenings and a Garden Bar across spring and summer, ranging from indie and rock to electronic and festival-style line-ups, with a PA brought in for shows. Many community events are free with a suggested donation towards upkeep; the open-air ruin gives every performance a striking, one-of-a-kind backdrop.
