The Head of Development at BOXPARK, Matthew McMillan attended the Planning Committee with Liverpool City Council for the BOXPARK Liverpool scheme.

They found out that our planning application for the scheme had been approved with unanimous consent. Liverpool Chair Cllr Tony Concepcion said in the committee that: “BOXPARK Liverpool is a welcome addition to the Baltic Triangle that will encourage more people to visit our city.”

BOXPARK are beyond excited about opening our first BOXPARK-branded site outside of London late this year! BOXPARK Liverpool will be the first of its kind outside of London adding to our three current sites in Shoreditch, Croydon and Wembley.

BOXPARK have agreed a 15-year lease with Cains Brewery Village for the site, located within the city’s booming Baltic Triangle. The venue will be transformed into a stunning food hall and events destination featuring a large internal space with units set over the ground floor, a small internal mezzanine, and an external terrace.

They are investing more than £3.5m into the Baltic Triangle and is expected to bring 150 new jobs to the local community. On top of this, we expect over a million people to visit each year.

Spanning 21,000 sq. ft and holding 400 internal covers plus 200 external covers BOXPARK Liverpool will include 10 kitchen units, three internal bars with additional external bars. There will also be a 5,430 sq. ft external garden to offer al fresco dining and intimate events.

Cains Brewery Village, Managing Director, Harj Dusanj comments: “Today marks an exciting day for Cains Brewery Village with the planning approval of BOXPARK Liverpool. It takes a village to nurture the regeneration of Cains Brewery and we are thankful for all parties that have worked hard to make this next chapter a truly exciting one. The inward investment into Liverpool is a testament to our home of pioneering creatives that continue to echo the entrepreneurial spirit of Robert Cain.

“BOXPARK shares our passion and enthusiasm to showcase the best independent street-food businesses with world class entertainment in the heart of the Baltic Triangle. Within BOXPARK Liverpool expect greater live experiences and opportunities to engage and celebrate the not-to-be-missed moments at Cains Brewery Village.”
