Student lifeThe city of Liverpool is such an important part of all of our students' time at Liverpool, and our campus is conveniently located just 10 minutes walk from the city centre. Liverpool offers a famously friendly welcome (we were voted 4th friendliest city in the world by Rough Guides), and with a vibrant cultural and social offering, plenty of green spaces and fresh air, a fantastic array of restaurants and nightlife, and plenty of both independent and big name shopping choice, it's not surprising we we also voted 7th best city in the world by Time Out in 2023. We have more galleries and museums than any UK city outside of London, and the city is a multicultural and outward looking place to be. It's also conveniently located, within easy access of Liverpool and Manchester airports, close to the beautiful countryside of the Lake District, North Wales and Peak District, and all just over 2 hours by train from London.Culture is a big part of the city of Liverpool, but it's also a big deal on campus, withthe Tung Auditoriumin the Yoko Ono Lennon Centre hosting a varied programme of musical events throughout the year, many of which are free, and our very ownVictoria Gallery and Museum, housed in the iconic redbrick Victoria Building.Ouron-campus Sport and Fitness Centreoffers a 25 metre swimming pool, sports halls, squash courts, dance and spinning studios, bouldering wall and brand new climbing wall, gym  with specialist strength and conditioning facilities) and weight training area. Organised group exercise classes to suit all levels of ability, with personal training sessions available. There is also a gym and sports facilities at Greenbank Student Village. Sports pitches and training facilities are located at our Wyncote Sports Ground, approximately 3 miles from campus. Getting  active is a lifestyle at Liverpool and there's plenty to do for free on campus too, with a running track, a container gym, and a half basketball court.Located in the heart of campus, our Guild of Students (Liverpool's name for the Students' Union), is home to over 200 societies, provides advice and guidance on a wide range of topics, and enables students to get involved in volunteering projects across the city - or just to try something new. It's a place to relax between lectures and meet friends, and to enjoy a varied programme of evening entertainment including some big name music acts. It's also a place to have your voice heard. Led by a team of student officers - elected by a campus-wide vote - the Guild acts as an independent voice that speaks up for the things that matter the most to our students.
