A year ago Liverpool prepared to host Eurovision. What an incredible time that was. I’ll be posting highlights from those wonderful days celebrating Ukrainian culture and being United By Music.

People moving around Bold Street with various shop signs sticking out from the shops. At the top of the street is St Lukes Church. There are purple flowers bridging the gaps between the street.
On a window in a red brick building there is Ukrainian flag bunting.
A Ukrainian painted artwork called the Superlambanana. It has the backend of a banana and the front of a lamb.
