BOXPARK to launch first development outside of London in Liverpool’s Baltic Triangle

Award-winning dining, retail and leisure operator BOXPARK is to open a brand-new venue in Liverpool – the group’s first BOXPARK-branded development outside of London.

Located in the historic Canning Hall at Cains Brewery Village, BOXPARK Liverpool will offer all-day dining and entertainment – creating over 150 jobs.

Scheduled to launch in late 2023, BOXPARK says the venue will be “an exciting and vibrant addition to Liverpool’s buzzing food and drink scene” whilst offering “a unique programme of entertainment”.

BOXPARK has agreed a 15-year lease with Cains Brewery Village for the Canning Hall, which will be transformed into a food and events destination featuring a large internal space with units set over the ground floor, a small internal mezzanine, and an external terrace.

Spanning 16,000 sq. ft and holding 400 internal covers plus 200 external covers, proposals for BOXPARK Liverpool will include around 10 kitchen units, three internal bars and additional external bars.

Famous for its diverse street food offering, independent retailers and events, BOXPARK’s new venue aims to “champion local businesses and talent with fantastic opportunities for both independent and established food operators”, as well as artists, creators and performers from Liverpool.

BOXPARK Liverpool will join the operator’s three current sites in Shoreditch, Croydon and Wembley. BOXPARK Croydon opened in October 2016 and is the biggest food and culture outlet of its kind in London with more than 30 street traders from around the world.

Simon Champion, CEO of BOXPARK, says: “We are thrilled to announce such a fantastic location for our next BOXPARK venture. Our team have searched extensively for sites in Liverpool since 2016, having considered multiple locations across the city but we believe the Cains Brewery Village is perfect for this scheme.

“As a dynamic and fast-growing business, we hope BOXPARK will be an exciting addition to Liverpool’s buzzing food and drink scene, offering an all-day food and entertainment destination.”

Harj Dusanj, managing director at Cains Brewery Village, adds: “We are incredibly excited to be welcoming the first BOXPARK-branded venture outside London to Cains Brewery Village.

“BOXPARK shares our passion and enthusiasm to showcase the best independent street food businesses in the heart of Liverpool’s creative quarter.

“Within this new social destination, expect greater live experiences and opportunities for sport and music fans to celebrate the not-to-be-missed moments at Cains Brewery Village.”
