Liverpool welcomed a number of new shops, entertainment venues and restaurants in 2023, from Gravity Max to a sparkling new Marks and Spencers store in Liverpool ONE. And, more exciting openings are coming.
While the city has said goodbye to a number of popular stores in recent months, empty units will soon be transformed into bustling cafes, shops, restaurants and bars, adding to Liverpool's already fantastic offering.
Several big retailers and local independents have announced plans to open new venues in Liverpool this year and some will be open in the coming days and weeks.
