Itinerary

A visit to the Beatles Museum is a must-do when visiting Liverpool. Enter to view an assortment of items that either currently belong to or were formerly a part of the history of the world's most well-known band. The collection is owned by Roag Best, the son of The Beatles' road manager. Over the course of the last 30 years, Roag has accumulated quite the collection, many of which came directly from his late father, Neil Aspinall.

The Beatles had a large entourage while they were at their peak, but Neil was a confidant and buddy. Later on, he rose to the position of CEO of Apple Corps, leading the band's projects like Beatles No. 1, Let It Be Naked, The Anthology, and Love (Cirque du Soleil). Neil was regarded by the Beatles as a friend, and they had complete faith in him. Neil was surrounded by The Beatles all the time, and you can see the stuff he gathered at the Liverpool Beatles Museum.

Roag hails from a renowned family. Pete Best, his brother, was The Beatles' original drummer and a major contributor to their ascent to stardom. Without a question, Pete's observations about the early years played a critical role in shaping the future of The Beatles.

The Liverpool Beatles Museum is home to a variety of items, including Paul McCartney's bass amplifier, John Lennon Sgt Pepper medals, the white cello from Magical Mystery Tour, and original guitars and drums from the band's Hamburg era. At this unique museum honouring the greatest rock and roll group of all time, visitors may also peruse hundreds of more personal artefacts, such as never-before-seen letters, exclusive band interviews, and never-before-seen Beatles footage!

The first rock and roll club in Liverpool, the Casbah Coffee Club, was founded by his mother, Mona Best. She gave The Beatles access to a location for rehearsal and performance—a place Sir Paul McCartney lovingly refers to as "our club." She oversaw a lot of their early business dealings and, among other things, supported their deportation and subsequent return to Hamburg.

Discover real artefacts such as band interviews, John Lennon's itinerary from his first American tour, the enigmatic cello from "Magical Mystery Tour," guitars and drums from the Hamburg era, medals from the pop art classic "Sgt Pepper," the first-ever footage of the Beatles performing live, real gold and platinum discs, private letters and possessions, studio monitors from the renowned Abbey Road Studios, and much more.

By going to the Liverpool Beatles museum, you can experience The Beatles' journey from 1959 to 1970 up close and personal. It's the best location to go for history and souvenirs, and you'll have a day to remember.
