Plans by a South Liverpool cricket club to stage a series of events in Sefton Park during the close season have been met with opposition.
An application for a premises licence has been made to Liverpool Council by Sefton Park Cricket Club (SPCC) for a multi-function event site in marquees between September and January 2023 on its lower field near Mossley Hill Drive. The club is asking the council for permission to stage plays, film, live and recorded music, dance and other similar activity every day from 10am to 11pm.
The licence would also allow the club to sell alcohol from 10am to 10pm daily, with opening hours of 9am to 11pm. It is understood by the ECHO that one of the events the club is looking to host is a fan zone for this winter’s football World Cup in Qatar between November 17 and December 18.
