Having a baby is one of the most life-changing events you're likely to experience, especially for first-time mothers. And a successful event starts with the best baby shower venues in Liverpool, like inviting restaurants, chic homes, leafy outdoor spaces, and unconventional choices like historic libraries or neon-filled dance clubs.
Giggster has all these options and so many more. A quick download of the app grants access to top Liverpool baby shower spaces where finding the perfect venue is both easy and affordable. If it's most convenient to hold the party in the city centre or the guest of honour would prefer a quieter countryside spot, we have just the place!
This special occasion deserves a proper celebration, and whether you're a friend, family member, or the mum-to-be, the path to a magical shower day begins with a Giggster venue. Imagine all the options you'll have for decor with an entire venue at your disposal!
Most people don't have a full events team to rely on to plan a thoughtful baby shower. That's where we come in with venues full of natural light, comfortable furniture, cosy patios, and posh decor.
If light and bright is the name of the game, rely on the exclusive use of an event space decked out with white tablecloths, bamboo chairs, mirrors, and pops of colour in the form of trees and plants.
When cosy, comfy, and classic define your baby shower theme, we have wood-panelled restaurants and rooms rich in warm tones.
Sometimes baby showers call for an all-out party, and if that's the case, choose from live music venues for wow-worthy entertainment and outside areas where everyone can really stretch their legs.
Keep things simple and select venues that already have restaurant and bar staff in place. You also don't need to worry as much about cleanup!
Exceptional Variety & Quality: You might be surprised that we offer Liverpool options starting as low as £25/hour. But being affordable doesn't mean you have to sacrifice. Celebrate indoors or outdoors, in the city centre or the outskirts in style, even on a modest budget. Rest assured that all the choices are curated to ensure they are represented accurately and fit your needs.
Hassle-Free Booking: Planning an entire baby shower is hard work. But, with the Giggster app, our 56 different spots in Liverpool are easily searched and filtered to find the perfect fit. Review images, see availability, and book in just a few minutes. Plus, the service provided by our helpful property hosts won't disappoint!
24-Hour Free Cancellation Policy: Complete your booking with at least 48 hours to spare before the event and you can benefit from free cancellation during the first 24 hours after receiving your confirmation. Change your mind entirely, adjust the time, or make the date a week later without any fees.
Platform Protections: Have trouble committing, especially when faced with too many decisions at once? Prolong the free cancellation window with optional extra coverage for complete flexibility. It's also possible to opt into liability and damage protection for total peace of mind.
Before launching into the party planning, do a quick check to make sure this is the right spot for your shower. With anywhere, Liverpool has good and not-so-good points to evaluate:
Advantages
It's super easy to get around Liverpool (trains, buses, ferries) and to the city from elsewhere in the UK for out-of-towners. Plus, for anyone coming in from further than that, Liverpool Airport is conveniently on a few bus routes.
The locals are friendly. If you need assistance with carrying supplies, directions, or any other type of help, it's pretty easy to get, even in the busy city centre.
The food scene here is actually quite underrated. From restaurants to caterers, you can find just about any cuisine you're imagining.
Disadvantages
To say that the weather in Liverpool is unpredictable may be an understatement. As with many UK cities, rain is common here pretty much year-round, so you'll need a backup plan for any baby showers with outdoor components.
Certain venues require a minimum spend or will only allow in-house catering. This can either be expensive or limit your creative vision for the menu.
Liverpool's centre can be full of tourists in the summer months, so parking and getting around can be a bit of a challenge.
Need some inspiration? Any of the 56 venue options are ideally suited to an unforgettable baby shower. Which one you choose just depends on your vision.
Rooftop Bars – Views Anyone? Rooftops just seem to exude grandeur. Impressive views (hopefully not through the clouds), a useful bar area, and a stage for your speeches or karaoke make this option kind of a no-brainer.
Restaurants – Culinary Convenience. Let's say the mum-to-be likes Bavarian food. We have a restaurant for that with atmosphere for days and comfortable seating. What if British comfort food is more appealing? Pick a homey space with brick walls and a drool-worthy menu. Larger groups might also enjoy an elegant restaurant spread over three floors, complete with chandeliers and larger windows.
Houses – Feel at Home. The choices for houses and apartments run the gamut from clean and modern to completely chic to charmingly comfortable. Whatever your vibes, you'll find something perfect in the app.
Event Halls – Style and Functionality. Need room to open gifts, dine, and mingle? A large room or banquet hall could be just the thing. There will be elegant tables and chairs in place already, flexibility on food options, and decor to match the occasion.
Outdoor Oases – Hope for Sun. There's nothing better than celebrating outdoors when the weather cooperates, but in Liverpool, be warned that it's always a roll of the dice. Find open courtyards, patios with bars attached, or even an indoor pool for the illusion of being outside without the rain risk.
After you've found the perfect baby shower venue in Liverpool with the Giggster app and booked it, there's, unfortunately, still a lot to do:
Start Inviting – Get invitations out early to give people ample opportunity to reserve the date and RSVP. This will help you get an accurate headcount for planning the rest of the event.
Plan the Games – Interactive games are one of the best ways to keep guests engaged and entertained. Add options like a prediction game (will it be a baby boy or girl?), get crafty by decorating some bibs, or make suggestions for baby names and award a prize if one actually sticks. Mixing up a fun playlist to go along with the festivities doesn't hurt, either. Add a local spin and feature Liverpool-themed artists like the Beatles (well, obviously), Elvis Costello, or Frankie Goes to Hollywood.
Sort Out the Menu – Inclusivity is key. Gluten-free, vegan, and meat-free, are all prevalent diets these days, so have accommodating options for every guest with a little forethought. Simply add a box for preferences on the invite. The menu choices are really endless, and you can opt for everything from afternoon tea to dessert tables to keeping the Liverpool theme alive and serving scouse stew. Or maybe not...
Obviously, marking this special event is important, but babies are expensive, so try to keep the shower costs as low as possible with these tips:
Host the shower early.
When you schedule the party for the late afternoon into the evening, it's implied that guests will get a full meal. Plan the event in the morning instead and you can cut the food budget by offering lighter fare like appetisers and charcuterie boards.
Flex your creative muscles.
You don't need to buy all the decorations. In fact, sometimes re-purposing or making decor items yourself adds a personal touch to the party. If you're planning a surprise shower for the mum-to-be, she'll really see all the effort you put in!
Keep it small.
By only inviting close family and friends, the cost will decrease for everything from paper invitations and postage to food to the venue. Besides, many would say that the most memorable baby shower is one where you can connect with every single person, which wouldn't be possible with a huge guest list. Also, beware that some venues require a minimum spend, so fewer guests could mean each person has to spend more.
With all the best baby shower venues in the city, from homes to banquet halls to restaurants, securing the perfect spot is easier than ever with the Giggster app. Focus on other components of the special day, knowing that you checked off the venue in one quick step.
