Arts Club in Liverpool

Great little venue with a good sound.

Absolutamente terrible lugar la primera vez y la última vez que voy a ir aquí personal de la puerta Absolutamente vil y poco profesional personal fue grosero allí también no en los baños Unisex piensan que eso está mal también cualquiera sabe quiénes son las firmas de la puerta por favor

Great small venue, supporting smaller bands and keeping live music limping along in Liverpool's ailing scene. Now, if we could just do something about the lacklustre Liverpool crowds, who really don't seem to be that into music...

The place was just amazing so well decorated, well lit, well planned with the exits /toilets. Staff were brilliant from security guys to bar staff very understanding, empathetic thank you for this great experience will be coming back ❤️

Great venue well arranged with plenty of bars serving good beers ect good friendly staff wonderful

Went to the arts club with my son and grandson to see Brooke Coombe. It was run very professional and the staff were very friendly and helpful. Unfortunately I lost my car keys there, but didn't realize till I got home. I contacted the club via email. Alicia got back to me as soon as the keys were found. I went to pick them up and again the staff were helpful and pleasant. Brooke Coombe was amazing🙂🙂

Nice little venue, visited for the first time last Friday! Had a great night, and will look forward to coming back again.

Went to see Ben and Ian from gomez. The gig was upstairs in the venue, the venue and staff are great it was clean and they are all friendly. Unfortunately the door staff member who shouts move to people in his way because he's small needs to wobble his head. Lost a star guys ! I'm gutted as was a top night apart from that fella

Just been to the Arts Club to see Brooke Combe. Great venue Great sound and Brooke Combe was amazing. But a special shout out to the security staff they had kids in the venue that were younger than their normal crowd. But they really looked after us made sure the kids were OK multiple times the security staff are a credit to the venue

Very poor lighting at the top of the stairs as you turn the corner into the main auditorium. Really, really dangerous. It’s lethal. There’s going to be a serious accident. It’s impossible to judge how far the steps are below you as there is zero lighting on the stairs and they are all at irregular heights, shapes and angles. I fell heavily on my heels but somehow managed to stay on my feet without breaking my ankles. Honestly I can’t imagine how this venue passes health and safety. It’s more like a fairground ghost ride than a concert hall. I dread to think what would happen in an emergency.

Great venue :) we visited for the first time last weekend and we look forward to coming back again

We came here for Swiftogeddon on a Friday night and had a great time. The event was full but not overcrowded which was nice, plenty of room to dance and enjoy yourself. All the staff and security were nice, especially the bar staff. Overall this is a great venue. The drinks however really let the venue down, the mixers were very watery and not enjoyable so we didn’t drink much which we would have liked too. The queue was also confusing as it was a queue for 2 different venues in one but we managed to get inside easily. We would definitely return :)

Great venue - small, intimate. Nice to get so close to artist - in this case the brilliant Damien Dempsey. 3 bars, would be handy if the one that sold draft beer also sold wine!

Fantastic venue with great live bands. Went to watch Neil Noa who was supported by The Way Off. Fantastic gig.

Great gig ( Luvcat) nice atmosphere staff are professional a few stairs are involved but not to many

The big space with low and high sections allows you to watch a show from a variety of angles. You can potentially get a good view of the stage wherever you stand.

Saw Billy Lockett here in Feb 25, Fab set + support from Afreine. No wine on sale!! Other than that great nite out.

Sam is really nice, really good service and attention. Will come back soon

Great venue , watched the 502's here and they were amazing.

Good size loft room for live music but there are steps. Think it holds about 400. I would rather see bands in a smaller venue than a stadium the experience and atmosphere is much better. Went to see The Clause live here, they were amazing and had the crowd roaring

Great place to be, atmosphere never goes a miss, great staff

Great venue, Alicia was very accommodating

£6:40 for a terrible pint of lager, £10:10 for a bottle of beer and a coke, We want to get people out supporting local bands, Who sets the bar prices and this was at half 7, 🍺😞

Amazing staff great prices , defo the place to go in Liverpool. Box office staff are amazing and helpful.

First time visiting Arts Club, came to see the amazing The Luka State, great little gig venue and we'll worth the travel from Manchester.

First time visiting this venue since it became an O2 academy. Staff hardly checked me and didn't bother with my partner at all even in his big coat. We weren't trying to bring anything in but it was obvious a numerous amount of people were not just under the effects of alcohol in our view - a bit disrespectful with their flailing arms and legs making us move towards the back. It was so cold as well. I knew we would require jumpers which we wore but ended up retrieving our coats after half an hour as we couldn't stand the cold. This is after paying a fee to store our coats. In addition to the £50 per person ticket. If expect a little heating. And to top it off £14 for a small wine and coke is a joke. Won't be returning

First visit to see the Farm. Access to the balcony, great view and sound. Friendly, helpful staff.

Great little venue, visited a few years ago, so this was my 2nd visit, and they've had a recent refurb. Went to Halina Rice gig, visuals and audio were fantastic.

Great little venue, have enjoyed many gigs here over the years. Surprisingly good pint of Guinness too.

Great venue, lots of bars inside so easy to get a drink, good amount of space for dancing/bopping around to the music that was being played.

Great gig venue, lots of steps and different levels all over, not great if your drunk

Used to go there many years ago changed inside a lot, dark and dinghy now. Me and may mate used to put on a night called the Mercury lounge , good time I remember when Tony Rothwell bought the place and opened it up , was there last night , Madas man film premiere after show , with Jacob Fourtune Loyd and the rest of the cast ..

Los porteros tienen células cerebrales de dos dígitos y son de lejos los peores en liverpool, el lugar no es tan grande, el personal es grosero y el servicio al cliente realmente no le importa, simplemente te ignoran. Podría ser un gran lugar con un cambio de cierto personal. Yo y los amigos nunca volveremos a ir.

I attended here for a Seb Lowe gig and the security and bar staff were the kindest people ever. They were so conscious of my issues regarding being in a wheelchair and treated me like a person and made sure I was comfortable. I would honestly recommend coming here as I only experienced kindness

Nice venue in the heart of Liverpool!

Elles bailey and band was great a good gig by everyone

Good 1D night but only good when drunk. Otherwise good!!

Travelled for Exhilaration event and got turned away at the door because a friend was wearing shorts that didn’t suit their policy. Got changed into trousers, still refused entry twice over. The bouncer was so far up on his high horse that he couldn’t see the ground. Power hungry doormen who get aggressive when you question why they won’t let you in. The biggest set of thugs I’ve ever come across. We weren’t the only ones with the same problem. Won’t bother again.

Brilliant venue, great atmosphere with the painting in the dark

Great little venue, felt oversold though (packed out to the maximum)

Great venue. Saw Green Lung here.

Excellent venue with great atmosphere. The tiered stair area overlooking the stage, along with balconies, meant there were fantastic views of the bands from anywhere

A great venue with a loft space upstairs. Disabled access is not great with steps into the main area and the loft venue not having lift access.

Excellent venue, saw The Kiaros and the Lottery winners

Good atmosphere but the dj was really bad

Great gig by The Karios during Sound City weekend - venue is excellent

Great venue. Really good sound quality. Didn't try the beer.

Need to review prices. £6.60 for plastic cup guinness yikes! Good venue otherwise. But bought less drinks because of the prices

Very good venue. Even for oldies like me.

I was there to see Ian Ball and Ben Ottewell from Gomez. Great gig and excellent venue. Good service at the bar.

Great venue, would've given 5 stars except they had no wine!

Great intimate venue, useful balcony view for late arrivals and those not wanting to get in the thick of it. A couple of support pillars do block views so be careful where you position yourself

Atmospheric. Shipping containers and Celestial Candyfloss. Gruff Rhys is an amazing artist. As were his band. He likes to tease with an intro and then stop playing.Very humble and humorous .A rare entity in these troubled times. Hope more Artists play there. The Arts Club is better than the early days of The Lomax. An impressive venue.

Went on a Thursday but wasn’t too busy. But I can image it being good when there are more people. Tickets are a tad more expensive than the usual club and drinks were the same. A single vodka lemonade was £5.50. However the lights were cool.

Great venue staff friendly and helpful security staff friendly and helpful overall a place to go

Lovely old building, great security staff but drinks are pricey and the coldest gig ever! Really chilly in venue. Sound was very low as well

Great time very different loved it

Horrific wouldn’t even be let in the queue as the queues too long honestly wouldn’t trust this place at all. Overpromising underachieving and so lacking compared to anything else m/

Went to see the Heavy North but the sound was terrible. I think it was the sound engineer rather than the PA though.. Nice venue

Amazing venue, great place for gigs and club nights

Really enjoyable experience. Staff were lovely and friendly. Would highly recommend.

Great service cheap drinks staff were great

What a great venue to see your favourite artists up close. Stadium sellout djs right in your face

Not happy with the security team they have Malnourished sniffer dog and a dog handler that is obvious to the welfare of its dog and is seriously rude to everyone she speaks to. I was kicked out with out a surch or second pass of the dog I %100 did not have drugs on me but did infact eat a burger befor i went in and got sniffed out by a seriously under weight security dog disgusting behaviour by the security team and I will be reporting that dog to the rspca

Served by Katty who was constantly making us laugh all night long!! Was so lovely and friendly :)

Kat was the highlight of my night!! so attentive and friendly! she deserves a pay rise!!!!

staff are all great, especially kat! fair priced drinks and great gig venue!

Kat made my evening such a good laugh, will be coming back!

Great night here - special mention to Kat on the bar who was so lovely and knowledgeable !!

Great venue in Liverpool! Went to see Sonny Tennet here and it was fabulous Sonny was amazing and the venue was perfect for the gig Would recommend and will certainly return to see many more gigs

Had an ace night here was unreal! Cheap drink offers and the management was next to none. Will defo be recommending Arts Club to others!

Amazing Venue!! Been for a live gig & a club night & both absolutely smashed it! Staff are great & drink prices are very fair!

Great venue. Went to a punk show and this venue is great for it. Saw The Meffs, who absolutely smashed it! Local band The Battery Farm were there too and they sounded massive! Deffo will be back for the next punk show!

Great night with Reggaeton Party Liverpool

Such an amazing venue, anywhere you stand you feel so close to the stage. Any band playing here I’d love to see. And not only is there a coat check, it’s free!!!!

Went here to see the Wombats. As you walk in there's a nice bar area and we got served quickly considering there was a gig on. There's not many toilets so the queue does build up but I think there may have been more at the other side of the stage room. The stage area is nice. Only complaint was it was really crowded so difficult to get to the bar or toilet.

Went for a gig and asked for a specific drink (only seeing what bitters they had). Rather than say they didn't have it, the bar man and his colleague criticised my choic of drink, becoming insulting regarding my age. Would be more of a comment on the poor drinks selection on offer than my choice. Having ran several bars in music venues up and down the country, I would never expect my staff to act in such a way.

A great venue to see a band. Many venues are too large and you are someway from the band/show. This is just right with the band just feet away and a great atmosphere.

Venue is great, bar service and prices horrific.

Fantastic gig but place looking run down now. Used to be fantastic 10+ years ago. Hope it gets some funds in to restore it :)

I needed to use the accessibility for my daughter and received the most outstanding help, support and guidance from a wonderful person called Becky. Becky was kind, patient and went above and beyond to ensure this event will be a success for my daughter. Can not praise the disability service provided highly enough. Thank you Becky for making the concert possible for us to attend.

Great music venue disappointing bar.

Standing only ,bit run down, drink expensive, but gig was great .

Staff were extremely helpful. Great venue. Highly recommended.

Great staff. Nothing too much trouble very helpful 👌

Fantastic venue for gigs!! My favourite by far!!

Really nice venue to watch a band.

Went to see krs one what a great small venue great intimate gigg 👍👍

Seen krs 1. Good venue but I think tickets were oversold as large groups of people by bar as nowhere else to go.

Brilliant great gig from both acts

I was hired to take some photos for Halloween Party and absolutely love the atmosphere of the club. cityshot.uk

Love the Arts Club, one of my favourite venues. Staff are always great too. Seen The Hunna and it was a great night.

Great venue. Perfect size for an intimate gig.

Great bar. The 3 piece band were great and the prices of drinks were good as well. A good night out.

⁰small venue . But great atmosphere. Drinks over priced .. more expensive than Wembley Stadium...

Great venue and saw a great band called Stone. It was £8 for a pint of San Miguel hence why have given it 3 stars. It is an absolute disgrace charging that much and should be illegal. I really don't understand the logic in it.

Show cancelled last minute, no notification for residence. Show just ended. After over a year of waiting for the album

Attended potter payper gig last night. Queuing system was well organised, covid checks done thoroughly and in we went. The door staff were great, think his name was Steven & another lady with short blonde hair were especially good. The gig was amazing but the bar was so overpriced,£6.35 for a can of lager! Bar staff were lovely though. Fab night had :-)

Como de costumbre, el Sr. Cope fue muy entretenido, pero este tiene que ser el peor lugar de música al que he asistido. Las entradas habían sido sobrevendidas masivamente, lo que significa que muchas personas se fueron o tuvieron la opción de ver el concierto desde el vestíbulo superior a través de un mar de cabezas. Desde este punto de vista se podía escuchar la música, pero los monólogos de Cope eran en su mayoría inaudibles. Buen trabajo, no era necesaria una evacuación de emergencia, ya que nunca habría sucedido. Terrible lugar.

He vivido en Liverpool toda mi vida y no sabía si este lugar. Totalmente anónimo en el exterior, pero entra por la puerta principal y entra en una joya histórica de Liverpool. Las paredes están cubiertas con retratos pintados al óleo de los presidentes del club desde la década de 1840 hasta la actualidad. Estaba en un grupo de 42 amigos con un almuerzo tardío de Navidad y lo pasamos tan bien que ya lo reservamos para 2021. La comida es excelente, el personal muy atento y recomendaría este lugar a cualquiera que busque un lugar diferente para tener su función.
