What's On in Liverpool
Monday 03 August 2026 · This weekend · City guide
Monday in Liverpool is refusing to be boring, and frankly, we respect it. From the smoky glamour of fin-de-siecle Paris to the delightful chaos of a comedy open mic, the city is serving up an evening full of laughter, spectacle, and the kind of memories that make you glad you left the sofa behind. Step out — Liverpool has plans for you.
Highlights
Witty Whippet Comedy Open Mic — There is something wonderfully unpredictable about a comedy open mic, and the Kazimier Garden is the perfect setting for it — a lush, fairy-light-strung outdoor space that feels like a secret the city is sharing just with you. From 6:30pm, a rotating lineup of brave and brilliantly varied acts will be taking their shot at making you howl, with the odd rough edge only adding to the charm. Grab a drink, settle in, and prepare to laugh at things you absolutely did not expect — check the website for ticket details.
Moulin Rouge! The Musical — If you have ever wanted to be swept up in a whirlwind of sequins, heartbreak, and showstopping pop anthems reimagined as theatrical spectacle, tonight at the Liverpool Empire is your moment. Moulin Rouge! The Musical brings the dazzle and drama of Baz Luhrmann's beloved film roaring to life on one of the North West's grandest stages, with costumes and choreography that will leave your jaw somewhere near the stalls floor. Curtain up at 7:30pm — check the website for tickets, and go on, treat yourself to the best seat you can afford.
