Summer events in Liverpool: The Axis

As we approach the height of the season, there’s no better time to take advantage of clearer skies and longer days. Located in the heart of Liverpool’s Knowledge Quarter, Spaces at The Spine offers a range of rooms designed to make the most of the season.

One of our stand-out spaces, The Axis, combines premium architectural features, natural light, and flexible functionality - plus, unrivalled panoramic views of Liverpool. From networking receptions to fine dining experiences, The Axis provides a distinctive setting that’s both versatile and inspiring, particularly during the summer months.

Elevated design

Proudly certified Platinum by the International WELL Building Institute (IWBI), Spaces at The Spine stands as one of the UK’s healthiest buildings. Designed with wellbeing and sustainability at its core, the venue represents purposeful architecture.

At the heart of our venue is The Axis, a space that benefits from an abundance of daylight, thanks to expansive floor-to-ceiling windows that wrap the room. This offers uninterrupted views of Liverpool’s iconic skyline, creating a striking and memorable backdrop for any event.

Complementing the views, the space incorporates biophilic design elements, including the use of striking greenery and natural materials to support wellbeing and create a calming atmosphere. The combination of natural light, open space, and visual connection to the outdoors makes The Axis an especially vibrant and uplifting environment for any event.

Flexible by design

The Axis has been designed to support a wide variety of event formats with ease and efficiency. With 223.45 square metres of space and a contemporary finish, The Axis can be styled and arranged to suit a range of events, from conference and networking lunches to receptions and fine dining experiences.

Equipped with state-of-the-art integrated AV facilities, The Axis features three landscape screens, lollipop screens, and uplighters, providing enhanced branding opportunities and ensuring seamless presentations or entertainment. This technology supports both in-person and hybrid events, allowing for versatile delivery options.

The space’s flexible layout and adaptable room arrangements accommodate different event sizes and styles, enabling organisers to create bespoke setups that meet their precise needs. This seamless adaptability ensures The Axis remains a polished and professional environment, no matter the occasion.

Exceptional catering services

Pairing high-quality spaces with a fresh approach to dining, Spaces at The Spine offers a catering experience that reflects the season and our commitment to wellbeing. Our summer menu brings together fresh, vibrant ingredients sourced from local suppliers, with an emphasis on nutritional value.

Created with the warmer months in mind, it features seasonal, health-conscious options, from refreshing Future 50 salads to dishes created around low-GI ingredients that help stabilise blood sugar. Every dish has been designed to nourish as well as impress, ensuring guests remain energised and engaged throughout your event.

Make the most of summer

The Axis at Spaces at The Spine provides a contemporary, light-filled venue that stands out during the season. With its unique combination of sustainability, design excellence, and service quality, it represents an exceptional choice for organisations seeking to host impactful events in Liverpool over the following months.
