DISCOVER STRAWBERRY FIELD

Strawberry Field, the iconic site immortalised by John Lennon in The Beatles hit, ‘Strawberry Fields Forever’, opened its iconic red gates to the public for the first time in September 2019.

An interactive experience that tells interweaving stories of the house, The Salvation Army, John Lennon’s childhood, and the writing and recording of ‘Strawberry Fields Forever’.

As part of your tour you have the opportunity to enter into a world where ‘nothing is real’ plunging into the 1860’s era where Strawberry Field began as a Victorian house, before it transformed into a safe place where The Salvation Army supported and homed some of Liverpool’s vulnerable youth.

Experience through archival footage, photographs and timelines and the specialist media guides, the world where John Lennon played as a child and what happened behind the famous red gates.

Note: Media Guides are also now available in French, Spanish, Brazilian Portuguese and Mandarin.

TOUR ITINERARY

CHILDHOOD HOMES

Hear about the Beatles’ families and find out why John and Paul used to practice in the porch! Discover which songs were written in Paul’s front room. Find out how why jelly babies were delivered to George’s house for his birthday. Photograph the sentimental pub just around the corner from Ringo’s home and school.

CHILDHOOD HOMES

PENNY LANE

See the famous street that it's in our ears and in our heart and which helped coin the 1967 hit. You’ll be able to see ‘a barber showing photographs’, the ‘shelter in the middle of the roundabout’ and find an 'old bank for a banker with a motorcar'!

PENNY LANE

STRAWBERRY FIELDS

The inspiration for John Lennon’s 1967 hit. Have your photograph taken by the famous red gates to Strawberry Fields and find out why John loved it so much by taking the time to enjoy the site in full incl. the exhibition. Previously the site of a Salvation Army children’s home where the young John Lennon played in the grounds, Strawberry Field now serves as a unique addition to Beatles tourism. The new site is home to an interactive visitor exhibition, café, shop, calm garden spaces for spiritual reflection and - at its heart - a Steps to Work programme for young adults with learning difficulties and other barriers to employment.

STRAWBERRY FIELDS

WHERE JOHN MET PAUL

Considered to be the most important meeting point in music history. You’ll go to where John Lennon met a 15 year old Paul McCartney for the first time in 1957.

WHERE JOHN MET PAUL

ELEANOR RIGBY

In the same place where John was a choir boy you will also be able to see the real life tombstone that possibly influenced the famous 1966 song.
