Blackstock Market, located in the heart of Liverpool, is a multi award-winning venue that brings together entertainment, culture, and culinary excellence in one dynamic space. This expansive venture, an £8 million, self-funded project by local brothers Paul and Binty, spans across 60,000 square feet and offers a diverse array of attractions. From the world-famous Hot Water Comedy Club and nightly live music to a rich food market and the city’s largest rooftop terrace, Blackstock Market embodies Liverpool’s vibrant spirit and stands as a cornerstone of community engagement. Additionally, we offer versatile spaces for hire, perfect for weddings, corporate events, and any special occasion.
The Journey to Blackstock Market
The seeds of Blackstock Market were sown from the success and community built around the Hot Water Comedy Club, founded back in 2010. The comedy club’s evolution from its early days in a nightclub to becoming one of the most followed comedy clubs in the world reflects a journey of passion, creativity, and ambition. While Hot Water Comedy Club and Blackstock Market are distinct entities, the ethos and energy behind the comedy club have significantly influenced the creation of Blackstock Market. This new venue represents a broader vision of providing a comprehensive entertainment and cultural experience, embodying the same commitment to excellence and community that has been a hallmark of the team’s endeavors.

At Blackstock Market, our vision extends beyond creating a space for entertainment; we aim to forge a community hub that reflects the soul of Liverpool, nurturing local talent and businesses.
