Liverpool's Director of Culture said the city's "joy, colour and exuberance" would be a perfect match for the Eurovision Song Contest.
The city's Director of Culture, Claire McColgan CBE, said Liverpool will "definitely" submit a bid following yesterday's announcement that the UK would officially host Eurovision in 2023. The announcement was confirmed by the European Broadcasting Union (EBU) and the BBC.
The decision has been because of safety and security concerns in hosting the event in Ukraine - this year's winning nation. The EBU confirmed the UK as the host of the 67th contest and the BBC as the host broadcaster.
