Liverpool Arena: first impressions

By | Sat 8th March 2008 - 9:14 am

Part of observing Conference Ctte meant I got to tag along on their tour of the building, and here are my thoughts:

  • It’s huge
  • And Shiny
  • And painted lots of very bright colours
  • There are amazing views back over Liverpool when you walk out of the building
  • (Almost) Everyone’s happy to see you
  • Registration went really quickly (I needed to upgrade to a voting rep badge because I didn’t send local party officer details to Cowley Street in time)
  • The building is a total rabbit warren – and not just the backstage bits where the LDV office is located
  • But this might be because we are not using it the way it is designed
  • Because it isn’t entirely finished (even if the roof is definitely on)
  • Corblimey, but it’s miles from anywhere
  • I’m going to get wet if it rains tomorrow
  • My hotel is lovely but cost a small fortune
  • On balance I’d be more than happy to come back here

As ever, the comments are open to you for your thoughts.
