Liverpool Arts Bar sits at 22 Hope Street, between the city's two cathedrals, inside Liverpool's Grade II-listed Masonic Hall. Opened in 2019, it hosts live music most nights — featuring local grassroots artists — alongside a programme of acoustic sets, spoken word, comedy, open mic nights, art classes, film screenings and exhibitions. Grand chandeliers and an old brass bar set the scene for a curated range of craft beers, cocktails and hot drinks. It is a genuinely welcoming, supportive space for performers of all kinds.
