RIBA North

RIBA North is RIBA's national architecture centre on the Liverpool waterfront. Open from 27 October 2023, Tate Liverpool and RIBA North have established a partnership to explore art, architecture, and the environment through exhibitions, commissions, and events. The Tate café and shop will also open from this date.

The centre is a place for everyone to discover more about architecture, with exhibitions, talks, tours and digital city model. RIBA North is an inspirational resource for both our members and the public - championing architects, architecture and good design. A joint programme will engage audiences from the galleries of RIBA North during the transformation of Tate Liverpool.
