RAW Williamson Tunnels Closing Party

RAW is returning for a final buzz before we all retreat home for summer being hosted in the Williamson Tunnels. The 1800s heritage site is the perfect location for raves and will be the best way to say a very drunken goodbye to exams and the end of the semester. Tickets are also only £3.

The event has free entry and the after-party is taking place at an underground dance venue, The Bakery. The Wide Open resident DJs have a selection of Afro, Latin, Jazz, and Dance music prepared for the launch.

Beatles vs Stones: A 50 years of Sgt Pepper’s Special

The weekend of exams ending coincides with almost 50 years to the day since “Sergeant Pepper’s Lonely Hearts Club Band” came out. Liquidation Liverpool is hosting a musical battle between The Beatles and The Rolling Stones to pay tribute to the sixties summer of love. The evening will be filled with modern rock and roll with bands on the playlist such as The Strokes and The Libertines as well as your favourite oldies lined up on the playlist including The Kinks, Jimi Hendrix, The Beach Boys, The Who and many more.

Concert Square

If none of these take your fancy, tickets are sold out or you’re just not into trying new things, go back to good old concert square. The square will always welcome you back with open arms and vodka doubles, ready to wipe away all the painful memories of revision and exams.
