00:00 This spring, Royal Albert Dock Liverpool welcomed the Fandango Disco Teca, a micro disco offering
00:08 a unique opportunity to dance away life's worries. Located in the Britannia Courtyard,
00:15 right by the Beatles' story, the immersive installation brings together the old and new
00:20 by reimagining a K67 kiosk once commonplace in 1960s Europe. The kiosks were often used
00:27 as newspaper stands, car parking attendant booths and more. The now treasured design
00:32 has been reimagined into a multi-coloured space dedicated to supporting people with
00:37 modern day issues ranging from everyday worries to grief and anxiety. The booth accommodate
00:43 up to eight people offering a chance to process feelings through a sense of togetherness.
00:49 Dancers can choose from a vast selection of playlists curated by non-profit organisation
00:54 The Lost Project or opt for a treasured tune to relive old memories. The Fandango Disco
00:59 Teca's residency at the Albert Dock marks the final location of its UK tour having previously
01:05 welcomed visitors in Canary Wharf, Milton Keynes and Berlin, making it the last chance
01:10 to experience this installation. But that's not all that's on offer in Liverpool this
01:16 Easter. Time to take a look at what is on elsewhere. There's a Comic Con takeover at
01:21 Liverpool One from Friday 29th March. Appearances, parades and selfie opportunities will include
01:27 cosplay characters from Doctor Who, Star Wars, Halo, Ghostbusters and more. Plus for all
01:33 the mini-explorers amongst us, Liverpool One's Nature Trail is the perfect excuse to get
01:38 outdoors and tour Shavass Park, learning about the vast array of resident plants and wildlife.
01:45 Roll up, roll up. There's pantomime fun at St Helen's Theatre Royal this Easter with

02:20 the Wildflower Meadow before enjoying some egg-cellent games. Plus they'll get the opportunity
02:26 to plant their very own miniature Wildflower Meadow to take home. This Spring, Speak Hall
02:31 has an Easter Trail for the kids where the little ones need to find 10 nature-inspired
02:36 activities for the whole family amidst the beauty and history of this hidden gem. Don't
