The Commonwealth Games baton relay will take place in Knowsley and Liverpool this summer.
Ahead of the 22nd staging of the international multi-disciplinary event being held in Birmingham between July and August this year, the baton relay will visit two boroughs in the Liverpool City Region. The baton will make the journey as it completes the final route across the UK, having visited Europe, Africa, Asia, Oceania, the Caribbean, and the Americas.
On Sunday July 17, Knowsley will officially welcome the baton, followed by Liverpool the next day as it makes its way back to the West Midlands. The visit to the Liverpool City Region is part of the 16th official Queen’s Baton Relay which begins on 2nd June.
