With less than a fortnight until the Eurovision Song Contest rolls into town, fans who were lucky enough to get their hands on tickets to the finals weekend may be surprised to hear that there is still plenty of accommodation to be found in the city.
On Saturday, May 13 tens of thousands of fans are expected to descend upon the city to soak up the atmosphere on the night of the Eurovision Final which will be held in Liverpool on behalf of Ukraine.
In the run-up to the grand final, the city will hold a EuroFestival with live performances at Pier Head's EuroVillage and there are expected to be hundreds of themed watch parties taking place.
Despite rising demand and price hikes pushed by official ticket holders, there are still some hotel rooms, apartments and lodgings to be found within easy reach of the M&S Arena, the Pier Head and city centre attractions.
Prices are, of course, higher than would normally be seen at this time of the year, but for dedicated fans and those who want to make the most of this historic moment in pop culture history, there is still room at the inn.
To help Eurovision fans find overnight accommodation we've rounded up some of the best options available on the night of the Eurovision Final, Saturday, May 13, 2023. We've also given an approximate idea of the walking times from each hotel to the M&S Arena and the Pier Head.
Public Transport will be running throughout the event, but with strikes anticipated on the wider transport network, visitors should check with local train and bus operators before they travel.
