The Old Dock Tour at Liverpool ONE

An opportunity to explore The Old Dock at Liverpool ONE, in partnership with National Museums Liverpool as part of Open Heritage Days. The Old Dock is the world's first commercial enclosed wet dock, a historic location revealed in 2001 during the excavations to create Liverpool ONE. The Old Dock paved the way for the successful dock expansion on both sides of the river leading to Liverpool's great contributions in commerce and world Trade.

Visitors will have access to explore The Old Dock themselves and ask the staff any questions. Visitors can expect to be taken back in time and see a large portion of The Old Dock rising more than 20 feet from the bed of the pool- the creek that gave Liverpool its name.

If visitors feel they haven't seen enough of Liverpool's heritage after The Old Dock visit, then the free Heritage Trail at Liverpool ONE is a great way to find out about 16 key historical events, locations and people that create part of Liverpool's history, all located across Liverpool ONE. You can follow using the map and a comprehensive audio guide found on the Liverpool ONE MyONE app.

Tickets will be available from 1 August 2024. Assigned on a first-come, first-served basis, early booking is recommended to secure a space.
