Liverpool Olympia Heritage Tours

Discover the iconic Liverpool Olympia, a Grade II* listed venue rich with over a century of history. Opening in 1905 as a grand variety theatre and circus — complete with its legendary Elephant Pit — the Olympia has evolved through eras of spectacle and unforgettable live events.

Our heritage tour guides you through this remarkable journey, exploring hidden corners, historic features, and the stories that shaped the building into the beloved events venue it is today.

Tours run for 60 to 90 minutes, offering an engaging behind‑the‑scenes look at one of Liverpool’s most treasured landmarks.
