On the Waterfront Returns to Liverpool Pier Head With Weller, Cream Classical and Snow Patrol

Organisers have published day-by-day schedules, imposed road closures plus restricted pedestrian access, warning that some performance details remain provisional.

Overview

  • Paul Weller will open the four-day festival on Thursday, June 18, supported by Miles Kane and Manchester band Arkayla, with organisers listing the day as open 5pm–11pm and last entry at 7.30pm.
  • Cream Classical is billed for Saturday, June 20, marking its 10th anniversary with the Kaleidoscope Orchestra, Sense of Sound singers and guest vocalists Alison Limerick, Robin S, Julie McKnight, Saffron and Bobbi Depasois and a last-entry time of 5pm.
  • Snow Patrol are reported to close the weekend on Sunday, June 21, with other acts that day including Circa Waves and Morgana and the event will be standing-room only.
  • Organisers and local outlets say road closures and restricted pedestrian access affect Water Street, Mann Island and the Royal Albert Dock entrances while stage construction blocks access toward George Parade.
  • Publishers emphasise day-specific opening and last-entry times, advise patrons to check age restrictions and bring photo ID, and warn that some setlists — including Paul Weller’s — are presented as expectations based on recent shows rather than confirmed lineups.
