The iconic Jacaranda is a landmark at the epicentre of Liverpool’s live music scene.
The venue that gave birth to The Beatles, The Jacaranda is built on a 60 year mission to offer a stage for new artists, hosting open-mic nights every Sunday and live bands in the basement gig venue most nights during the week from 7PM.
The entrance for the Jacaranda sits on Slater Street, with a ground floor bar serving a range of cocktails and hot drinks. Every Friday and Saturday hosts a range of live acts performing from early afternoon, and Friday late nights we have a club night called Cutting Teeth on in the basement where only fresh, new music is played, including tracks submitted by small local bands. Every Saturday from midnight we also have a live rock band in the basement, offering the unique experience of seeing a gig past 11pm.
Above the ground floor sits The Jacaranda Record Store, where every Friday and Saturday we offer you a chance to listen to 5 different albums that have been carefully selected by our record guru Namina Koroma, paired with 5 cocktails that legendary bartender Bobby Jones creates from his extensive research on the artists and albums. Whether you love music, love great drinks, or love both, every time you come down will be a different experience with the playlist and cocktail menu changing every week. Our room might look a little different but its vibe hasn’t changed. Book in advance here.
The Jacaranda Record Store is also home to our 1948 Voice-o-graph recording machine that records tracks directly to vinyl. One of only a handful in the world open to the public, this unique piece of history encourages anyone to record onto the revived, physical medium of vinyl.
Accessibility
The entrance to Jacaranda Records is raised by a step, but we can provide a ramp for wheelchair access. The ground floor is level throughout, though the live room is in the basement, and the record store is on the first floor and both must be accessed by a set of stairs. There are double handrails on both sides of the staircase.
TOILETS: The mens toilet is accessible on the ground floor but does not have any disabled facilities.
SEATING: Most shows are fully standing, though there is a seating area by the stage. Some events may require you to queue, so if you cannot stand for long periods of time, make yourself known prior to the show and we will make arrangements for you.
STAFF: Staff do not have any specific skills, but are capable of assisting with ramps.
VISUAL INFORMATION: The room will be very dark during performances.
AUDIO INFORMATION: We cannot provide any audio translation for deaf or hard of hearing persons. If you require ear protection please bring your own.
ASSISTANCE DOGS: Please provide official documentation stating the dog has gone through training to be able to support you at events/other unusual environments and circumstances. Emotional support animals are not included
ESSENTIAL COMPANIONS (CARERS): We can provide carer tickets for all of our shows. You must be able to show that the support you need is substantial, significant or frequent, and directly related to your needs as a disabled person. Please get in contact with us directly, or our ticket provider Skiddle.
