| Activity Calendar | ||
| Ballet & Dance | If you enjoy stunning choreography, read on... | |
| Classical & Folk Music | Liverpool and Manchester are home to three of the UK's top twelve orchestras - enabling group members to enjoy 'broadcast quality' concerts almost every week of the year... | |
| Drama and Film | Manchester's Royal Exchange, Stratford RSC and the best that London has to offer. Culture Live visits make access easy (and surprisingly inexpensive). HOME in Manchester is our favourite Regional Film Theatre... | |
| Grand Opera | Grand Opera demands very grand venues; 2019 destinations include the Met in New York and The Roman Arena in Verona! | |
| Live Jazz | Jazz is generally the most local of our activity genres with Clitheroe, Preston and Wigan as regular destinations; visits to 'Le Petit Journal' in Paris and The London Jazz Festival provided a couple of highlights! | |
| Organising an Event | If you have a 'broadly cultural' interest which you'd like to share with others we try to make it easy for you to organise your own event... | |
| Participating in an Event | Keeping the cost down is one of Culture Lives first considerations - this means we organise all events ourselves; as booking and travel agents are not involved we have to apply some simple rules and principles... | |
