LIVERPOOL
One of the world’s biggest clubs, so it’s no surprise that tickets are hard to come by. Anfield’s capacity of 46,000 doesn’t quite put it alongside the likes of Old Trafford, so there is a waiting list for tickets to Premier League games, but tickets can often be picked up for Cup matches, whether in the Europa League or in the domestic competitions. Outside of match days, there are always stadium tours and trips to the museum that we can organise for you from the hostel. On these tours, you will be taken around the historic home of the Reds, as well shown the well-stocked trophy cabinet, home to 19 league championships and a real-life Champions League trophy – the reward for winning 5 European Cups.
Prices are £14 for adults, £8 for students.
More information.
EVERTON
Sure, their trophy cabinet doesn’t quite have the sparkle of their fierce rivals across the park, but Everton’s still-impressive history makes a trip to Goodison Park well worth the effort. Tickets are slightly easier to come by than Liverpool for Premier League matches, and reductions are often made to prices for domestic competitions. If your trip to Liverpool doesn’t happen to coincide with a home fixture, there still is the option of a stadium tour where you can visit the dressing room Cahill, Arteta et al call home.
Prices are reasonable, too, with prices for tours starting at £8.50 for adults and just £5 for under 16s.

DJ Derek @ Mojo 18th August 2010
Liverpool Liverpool Music Liverpool Nightlife Other stuff
MOJO Liverpool has long been recognised as one of the best party bars in the North West, effortlessly cool, but without pretence it provides the perfect soundtrack and surroundings in which to sip its sumptuous cocktails. On Wednesday the 18th of August, in association with Wray & Nephew White Rum MOJO is serving up a real treat in the form of DJ Derek… The legendary Bristol DJ whose blend of reggae, dub and ska has made him an icon for many in the industry, including a host of Jamaican producers and Massive Attack. Derek isn’t your average turntablist – a former accountant in his late 50s (at least!) with a major cardigan habit, Derek kindled his love for music as a washboard player in the 1950s; nevertheless he continues to blow away audiences with his unique selections.
DJ Derek is supported on the night by Liverpool Reggae, Ska and 2 Tone Upstarts ‘The 10 Of Spades’ and legendary Leeds based DJ ‘El Gnomo Moonstompio.’ Best of all… and we’ll say it again, it’s FREE!
This is sure to be a special night of Rum and Reggae, and Wray and Newphew will be on hand to serve up some ’specials’, so don’t miss it! For more information please contact tom@lazy-genius.co.uk

Football? Ugh. Not this year. I’m giving it up, not after that summer…
What? I have to? Oh.
Only Trabzonspor stand in the way of Liverpool’s hopes of reaching the group stage of the Europa League. It’s all change at Anfield this term with Roy Hodgson taking charge following Rafa Benitez’s switch to Inter Milan and they will be looking to get off to a flyer against the Bordo-Mavililer (The Maroon-Blues, since you asked). Liverpool overcame the FC Rabotnicki 4-0 on aggregate in the last round in what proved to be a useful run-out for Hodgson’s charges.
It remains to be seen whether a more experienced line-up will be named, after Liverpool’s World Cup stars Dirk Kuyt and Javier Mascherano will feature. Oh, and Steven Gerrard, of course.
Tickets are available from: here.
The first leg will take place at Anfield on Thursday 19th August and we have beds available (at the time of writing) starting from £15 for a standard dorm room, going up to £45 for a double or twin room, though these prices are liable to change, so book soon. You can call us on 0151 709 5570, drop us an email on liverpool@hattersgroup.com or book on this here website.
