Located in the heart of the historical Royal Albert Dock, Maritime Museum tells the story of one of the world’s greatest ports. From the large HMS Conway anchor at the building’s entrance to the ship models in our spacious galleries, the Museum forms a unique part of Liverpool’s history and is an iconic place to get married.

The Museum overlooks the Royal Albert Dock, one of the largest groups of Grade I listed buildings in England and boasts an impressive outdoor space on the waterside Colonnades. This is an ideal spot to enjoy drinks receptions, evening buffets and barbecues with 200 guests – you could even hop on a boat and sail off into the sunset.

Say “I do” in the Maritime Dining Room surrounded by 200 loved ones. This is a flexible and private space with high ceilings and stunning views over the Dock and Pier Head.

For your reception head into the Maritime Museum Events Suite, which also has space for 200. Features include stylish exposed brick walls and large windows, complete with breathtaking views.
