Tickle the Ivories

20/08/2020 - 30/09/2020

We’re excited to bring back some of the things you love to Liverpool ONE.

Tickle the Ivories returns for its tenth year in 2020.

Join Liverpool ONE and Open Culture this summer to celebrate the tenth anniversary of Tickle the Ivories. With COVID-19 restrictions in place, we’re running a smaller version of the festival, but we can’t let the tenth year pass without tickling the ivories in the open air streets.

Pianists are invited to book slots on one of two pianos on College Lane or near the Sugar House Steps and they are licensed to keep any busking proceeds they make.

This week you can see performances from:

Simon and Danielle

Simon and Danielle are a piano vocal duo performing everything from old time jazz favourites to musical theatre classics.

Andrew Fisher

Heart-stopping, jaw-dropping, genre-swapping instrumental piano covers from veteran Tickler Andrew Fisher, the Human Jukebox! You ask him, and he’ll play it.

Johnny Larsen

A Solo Artist performing mainly 70’s & 80’s Rock/Pop Classics with some occasional alternative twists.
