'Safe to say we're Swifties now' say Liverpool artists

For a brief moment the sun shone and the eyes of the world looked upon us as the city stepped in to host the Eurovision Song Contest on behalf of Ukraine. It felt like after years of difficulties, Liverpool could take a massive sigh of relief and let its hair down and party.

Claire McColgan, Culture Liverpool director, explained. She said: “We’ve done this for years and Eurovision really cemented how we do things in the city. Claire said: “This isn’t as big as Eurovision, we’ve not got the budget for Eurovision but it’s absolutely about embracing the biggest artist in the world and making sure people don’t just come, go for a coffee, go to the stadium then go home again. We want them to see this incredible city and the warmth that it gives and grow that.

“I’m a theatre designer so I do a lot of set and costume and props as well. That’s why I’ve been doing the snakes and the clouds - the snakes are for reputation and the clouds represent 1989. Becoming part of the team for Taylor Swift is Make’s latest partnership with Culture Liverpool after playing an integral part in Eurovision preparations in 2023 as Kirsten spelled out. She said: “We previously worked with Culture Liverpool to deliver the Eurovision key that went to Malmo and the legacy has brought us incredible things like Taylor Swift coming to Liverpool.

“Now to have three spaces with an innovation lab, a maker space, a woodwork shop and all those makers under our roof is incredible, I couldn’t have imagined such an amazing project. I think the thing that’s of real value is that the project Culture Liverpool has brough to make stays in the local economy.
