The Nest has a gorgeous selection of pin badges, bookmarks, keyrings and kits; give kids a summer wardrobe update with cool graphic tees and hoodies at Lost Soles, or enjoy the sweet treat of handmade crumbly fudge from Roly’s Fudge.

Discover secrets of the sea with Maritime Museum

Dine out with menu specials

Be inspired at Tate Liverpool

Along with their free displays, Tate Liverpool has a week of free workshops for half term so everyone can get creative in the gallery’s family space.
