The Beatles Story is a museum on Liverpool's Royal Albert Dock telling the lives, times and music of The Beatles through immersive recreations of places like Hamburg, The Cavern Club and Abbey Road Studios. You'll see original memorabilia, from George Harrison's first guitar to John Lennon's last piano, alongside multilingual audio guides narrated by John Lennon's sister, Julia. Families can explore the Discovery Zone's interactive activities, and there's a Fab4 Store and 1960s-style Fab4 Café to browse afterwards. It suits Beatles fans and visitors wanting an overview of the band's story.
