This week Prime Minister Boris Johnson gave the go-ahead for pubs and restaurants to reopen from July 4.
Many Liverpool bars are delighted at the news, having been closed since March due to coronavirus.
But today, Cavern Club Liverpool announced it will not be reopening on July 4, after deciding it’s ‘too soon’ to welcome customers back.
In an announcement on Instagram, it said the decision on when to reopen will be reviewed weekly, adding that the reintroduction of live music appears ‘a long way off’.
Mathew Street venues The Cavern Club, The Cavern Pub and The Cavern Festival restaurant will all remain closed until further notice, and Magical Mystery Tours are currently not running.
International Beatleweek has also been cancelled for 2020.
