This November we’re celebrating our 55th birthday and what a journey it’s been! Since opening in 1969, we’ve become an iconic staple of Liverpool shopping, offering everything from local independent gems to your favourite big brands, and it’s all under one roof. 

A Throwback to 1969 

To celebrate, we’re throwing it back to 1969! The year we opened our doors and welcomed iconic moments, here are some of our favorite moments from ‘69: 

The Beatles’ Abbey Road Album: The Fab Four released their legendary album, and we like to think St Johns is just as iconic! Celebrate your local heroes with a visit to HMV and pick up your copy of this timeless classic. 

“One small step for man, one giant leap for local shopping”: While Neil Armstrong was making history on the moon, St Johns was launching a shopping experience to captivate the city. To get one small step closer to great prices head to One Beyond for some fantastic finds. 

Supersonic shopping: Concorde made its first test flight, and St Johns was elevating shopping to new heights. For a truly next-level experience, check out VR Liverpool for an out-of-this-world adventure! 

Spreading peace and love: John Lennon and Yoko Ono were campaigning for peace, and we were building a community hub for all. We’re proud to continue supporting and serving our local community today. 

Beaverbrook’s: A Special Beginning 

Speaking of timeless treasures, Beaverbrooks Jewellers was St Johns first tenant and has been offering luxury jewellery and incredible customer service ever since. Whether it’s an engagement ring or a birthday gift, Beaverbrooks has been part of your special moments for 55 years. 

55 Years of Shopping Fun 

In those 55 years, St John’s has transformed from 60s retro to a modern retail experience, while staying at the heart of the Liverpool community. This year, we’re celebrating with events, lots of fun competitions, and special offers from some of your favourite stores, so keep an eye out and get involved! As we look to the future, we’re excited for the next 55 years of shopping, community, and memories at St Johns!
