It’s a New Year, which means a chance to explore new opportunities. And in the city of Liverpool, there are so many things happening which justify a visit to the city for the biggest of occasions. These are just some of the events that you should keep an eye on in Liverpool during January 2026.

For instance, if you are heading to Liverpool from a business perspective, then you may be interested in attending the British Accounting & Financial Association (BAFA) FMI SIG Annual Conference, which is being held at Liverpool John Moores University from Thursday 8 January to Friday 9 January. The conference is a fascinating exploration of the current economic landscape as we slowly venture into the first month of the year.

If you are more intrigued by the idea of studying local history, then we would recommend that you check out the Toxteth: Harlem of Europe exhibition at Victoria Gallery & Museum at the University of Liverpool. This is a retrospective look at Toxteth’s most notable black musicians from the 1950s and 1960s, and their lasting legacy on the city’s music scene.

Perhaps you are looking at attending a live show, in which case Liverpool absolutely has you covered! There is Uptown Girl – The Billy Joel Collection, which comes to the M&S Bank Arena on Saturday 10 January. Then, there is the major stage show of the month, Mary Poppins, which comes to the Empire Theatre from Wednesday 14 January to Saturday 31 January. And then there is the variety show Dancing In The Aisles, which comes to the Epstein Theatre on Sunday 25 January.
