Liverpool’s bid team is now undertaking a massive four- month mapping exercise of the city’s music before it officially hands in its bid in the spring..
If approved, it will join an exclusive club of four other Unesco cities of music and become a member of the Unesco Creative Cities Network.
Gordon Ross, the Co-ordinator of the bid, said: “Support for the Unesco bid has been overwhelming, and there’s a real desire from everyone involved and affected, be it the musicians, promoters, teachers and venue managers to put music at the heart of the city’s identity.”
There is also a Facebook page, called Liverpool City of Music, where everyone is encouraged to log on and leave their views about the Unesco bid.
