St Johns Beacon is a rare asset — instantly recognisable, structurally unique and centrally located...it’s an opportunity to create something truly distinctive at skyline level.
– Laurence Jones, portfolio director, Rivington Hark

An opportunity to reimagine one of the UK’s most recognisable towers has been formally opened by Rivington Hark, as St Johns Beacon invites operators and partners to shape its next phase.

Standing 138 metres above Liverpool’s city centre, St Johns Beacon is a defining feature of the thriving city’s skyline, offering panoramic 360degree views across the River Mersey, historic waterfront and surrounding region.

This contemporary landmark has the capacity to deliver a world class viewing/immersive attraction, cutting edge event and conference space, as well as housing the very best national and regional hospitality offers.

Crucially, the opportunity has been structured to welcome multioperator and consortium approaches, enabling partners with complementary strengths; from immersive content and events to F&B, brand activations and technology, to cocreate a cohesive destination experience.

Located at the heart of a city that attracts more than 60 million visitors annually, the Beacon sits directly within established visitor flows, with immediate access to transport, retail and cultural destinations. What comes next is simply a question of imagination and ambition.

Commenting on the opportunity, Laurence Jones, portfolio director at Rivington Hark said: “St Johns Beacon is a rare asset — instantly recognisable, structurally unique and centrally located. What makes this moment exciting is the openness to new thinking and collaborative operational models. It’s an opportunity to create something truly distinctive at skyline level.”
