The Virgin Red Guide to Liverpool
8 September 2023
Liverpool – a city known for its world-famous pop music heritage, one of football’s most famous stadiums (Liverpool FC’s Anfield), and home to one of the first Virgin Records stores.
Whatever brings you to the 'Pool of Life', there are lots of ways to earn and spend points with Virgin Red.
From platform to pop culture
Liverpool Lime Street station opened in August 1836 and is the oldest still-operating grand terminus mainline station in the world, and train travel is still one of the easiest ways to visit the Merseyside city. And for Virgin Red members a visit to Liverpool means another opportunity to earn three points on every £1 spent or use their points to unlock discounts with Virgin Trains Ticketing.
You’ll have access to money-saving solutions like split ticketing and zero booking fees on e-tickets and even better, Virgin Red members can earn three Virgin Points per £1 on every train ticket purchased.
