Rainy day activities in Liverpool

Keep a rainy day in Liverpool feeling like an adventure with indoor places for families.

Drizzle is no great obstacle to a good day in this city, provided somebody books the busiest bits early. The Beatles Story rewards a long, soaked afternoon: audio guides walk you through a recreated Cavern Club room, an Abbey Road studio and a Yellow Submarine area, with colourful displays and plenty for children to touch. Mini Villagers, in Aintree, gives smaller ones somewhere to dress up, pretend, problem solve and socialise, while grown-ups get a calm, stylish corner to sit in. Liverpool ONE keeps trampolines, a nature trail and GravityMax challenges going. Makers Cove is family-run, with holiday sessions on the schedule. Sapporo Teppanyaki Liverpool turns dinner into a spectacle, fire tricks and all, and its weekly Family Sundays carry a discount code for a child's meal. Mini Madams brings slime and crafts to the same problem. Croxteth Park, Imagine That!, Slimeville, Air Unlimited Liverpool and Splash Tours Liverpool sit on this list as well, so nobody exhausts the choices before the sky clears.
