We are traveling to Liverpool from London on Monday May 26th. We have rented a car as we are also driving to Bath after leaving Liverpool.
Unfortunately, we were just informed by the tour company for our Beatles tour, that May 26th is the day of the championship parade for the Liverpool Football Club and our tour was cancelled. The parade is starting at 2:30pm and is expected to take 3-5 hours on a 9 mile route. They are expecting a possibility of a million fans to line the parade route.
We are only spending this one night in Liverpool and are unable to change the dates because of all the accommodations and tickets for other attractions are booked for the following few days. Fortunately, the Beatles tour was able to be rescheduled for the next morning.
We will be picking up the rental car extra early now on May 26th, at 6:30 am in Wembley and starting to drive to Liverpool.
Anyone have any suggestions on how best to get into Liverpool that day? We are staying at the Ibis Styles on Dale Street. The parade will be a few blocks away. Maybe park at a train station and leave the car there overnight?
I finally had all our plans finalized and am now overwhelmed and stressed. The whole point of this trip is to go to Liverpool for the Beatles tour, it's a gift to our son for his graduation.
Thanks for any help and insight.
