Great Museum! - ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ British Music Experience, Liverpool is absolutely brilliant! I went with my granddaughter, daughter and my partner and we had such a laugh together. From playing the drums to dancing our hearts out in the interactive booths, it’s impossible not to get involved. What makes it even better is that your ticket lasts all year, so you can come back for more musical fun. The tea room quiz was a lovely surprise too—great fun and a nice way to relax after all the action. A fantastic experience for all ages and something I’d highly recommend to anyone visiting Liverpool. We loved every minute!

Joe - a jewel in the crown - An outstanding museum packed with fascinating information and incredible memorabilia, an absolute must-visit for any music lover. I especially want to give a huge shout-out to Joe, who is a real gem to the museum. He was knowledgeable, friendly, and even took the time to give my son some guitar tips as he’s just beginning his musical journey. Joe is an exceptionally talented guitarist, and we really appreciated his warmth and expertise. We’ll definitely be back to continue our music learning using the free return visit included with our tickets. Well done, Joe — fantastic customer experience! 👏

Great laugh and very interesting for all ages - Wonderful musical experience. We bought our earbuds and downloaded the app to follow the guide whilst we walked around - really made it. The memorabilia was interesting and musical events on the stage were great. Loved the Live Aid stuff - lots of memories. Being able to try the instruments and sing in a booth was hilarious. Great way to spend couple of hours.

Music overload yeahhhh - If one thing different to do that is do this if you get a Coty Explorer Liverpool you can get this. All I’ll say is they open the doors and you go into an unbelievable array of music memorabilia of decades. If you love music you’re love this.

A must see for music buffs - Must see for anyone who has an interest in British music thru the decades. Lots of displays, with artefacts and you also had the option to play instruments. They also had half hourly shows on the big screen of artists.

Brilliant place if you love music - Brilliant place to visit if you love music. There is the history of music n the different genres from the 50s right up till now. You can interact, listen and learn with many of the displays. And there is also an instrument area near the end to see if you have a hidden talent on the guitar, drums etc. Only thing I’d say is. The entry is a bit expensive. But it is a great experience

Fabulous for music lovers- could've stayed all day!! - The exhibition and interactive element is brilliant - love the way it's split by era - and like a jukebox experience and the try yourself part was awesome. The only glaring question - why Black Sabbath aren't featured??!!! They invented a whole new genre - metal/ alternative is given such a small part compared to Britpop/ Indie yet has had a similar impact on music culture- please add more!🙏 maybe Ozzy/ Sabbath could have a visiting exhibit like Live Aid has

Trip to the Music museum - The museum itself was good and the Boy Grorge hologram was amazing but our experience was spoilt half way through by a large group of students who were running around and shouting to each other. The interactive room was full but we expected this if it was busy.

Interesting but not worth the money. - Lots of information but well overpriced. Lots of better museums to visit in Liverpool such as the museum of Liverpool which is free
