15,000 expected each night at Eurovision fan village as plans signed off

Around 15,000 people are expected to descend on Liverpool’s iconic Pier Head for each night of the Eurovision fan village.

After the city won the honour to host the European music event in October, it was confirmed a month later the historic waterfront would be home to a fan zone throughout May. Liverpool Council’s licensing committee has now signed off on the plans with new details revealed on how it will operate.

The committee has approved proposals for a time limited application between May 1-20 to stage plays, films, live and recorded music, and dance from 9am to 2am. All other days would operate from 11am to 11pm Monday to Sunday.
