Liverpool has been voted one of the ‘Friendliest cities in the UK: 2025 Readers’ Choice Awards’ from Condé Nast Traveller which asks readers to vote for the friendliest corners of England, Wales, Scotland and Northern Ireland.

They said:

We all love a staycation city break, but which promises the friendliest stay? Our beautiful country is a patchwork of charming urban neighbourhoods, each with its own distinct personality, and nobody is better qualified to judge these cities than the British people themselves. In our annual Readers’ Choice Awards, we asked our readers for the inside scoop on which UK cities go the extra mile in making guests feel welcome.

From sunny spots on England’s southern coast to remote towns in Scotland’s north, the hospitable communities which won your votes stretch far and wide. Many are regulars in our rankings, whose friendly reputation is no secret, while other cities, such as Aberdeen and Cambridge, are newcomers on our shortlist. But one thing is for sure, if it’s a hearty British reception you’re after, these are the places to go

Liverpool. Score: 86.67

Ranking at joint eighth, this is the second year in a row that Liverpool has earned a place on our list, so it’s no secret that scousers are some of the most endearing people around. They’re wildly outgoing, thoughtfully inclusive, and always on the lookout for more to join their notoriously good nights out, so take a trip to a packed Liverpool bar and plunge into cheery conversation within seconds. After all, there are plenty of icebreaker topics to choose from. Learn about centuries of fascinating maritime history, pick a side in the major football club rivalry, or reminisce on Beatlemania as you get to know the lovely communities here.
