Your Anfield Abseil experience
Perfect for someone who thrives on heights and seeks out exhilarating challenges, ascend to the top of the Main Stand, one of the largest all-seater single stands in European football. As you climb, the views of the surrounding cityscape will gradually unfold. On the Main Stand roof, perched at an impressive height, see the stadium bowl and beyond, including the River Mersey. Securely harnessed, you will lean back over the very edge of the roof and descend approximately 100 feet.
A highlight of your 60-min descent will be the opportunity to glide past the Club's official crest, displayed on the Main Stand. This close-up encounter will be a special and photo-worthy moment.
You will also get a souvenir wristband and entry to The Liverpool FC Story Museum.
