Rare photographs of the Beatles are to go on display at the San Francisco Art Exchange.
It is the first time the photos, known as The Beatles’ Hidden Gallery, will be seen outside Europe. And it is part of a drive to promote Liverpool to San Franciscan residents.
The event will take place from May 7 where the collection, taken by Paul Berriff, will make its American debut. In a separate event on April 28, The Beatles and Beetles NightLife event will feature music with a scientific twist. The evening will include a set from the Beatles’ tribute band, The Sun Kings, while offering the expertise of resident beetle expert Dr David Kavanaugh.
Jerry Goldman, CEO of The Beatles Story, in Liverpool, said: “We hope that through this exciting event we can show San Francisco how much Liverpool has to offer those looking to travel to the UK.”
