Museum of Liverpool opened in 2011 and sits alongside the city’s most iconic buildings, including the Three Graces and the Royal Albert Dock.

The space is flexible and offers a blank canvas with huge potential to personalise your big day.

Its key feature is an enormous 24-metre picture window, framing Liverpool’s Three Graces, three iconic buildings spanning more than 100 years of the city’s history, with floor-to-ceiling views of the Pier Head and River Mersey.

While The Atrium is the largest single space to hire for a wedding with a capacity of 150, full venue hire is available, which would allow you to host up to 1,000.
