Aintree Racecourse
Aintree hosts the Grand National, the famed National Hunt race first run in 1839, each year. But there are monthly horse-racing events and the chance to get up close to the thundering hooves throughout the year, and you can also book ahead for a round of golf. Liverpool’s other hallowed turf can be found at Anfield Stadium, where, for Liverpool FC fans, passing underneath the "You’ll Never Walk Alone" motto on the gates is a spine-tingling moment. During the season, visitors can sometimes pick up last-minute tickets for a match, and in off-season, the stadium has regular tours.
