North West

This year the North West offers a vibrant programme of events taking place across Cheshire, Cumbria, Greater Manchester, Lancashire and Merseyside. There are fun family workshops, informative architecture lectures, exhibitions, tours of buildings and much, much more.
Architecture Week offers a great opportunity to get involved and to celebrate and enjoy the innovative and unique architecture of the North West region.

The talk takes place at FACT in Liverpool city centre and is free to attend, although tickets must be obtained in advance from RIBA NW. Please see the events listings page for further information.
