Beatles’ birthplace set to be rebuilt in holiday resorts
The famous brick arches of Liverpool’s Cavern Club, where The Beatles launched their career, could soon be replicated in holiday resorts around the world.
Plans are in the pipeline to open copies of the nightspot, starting with one in the Spanish resort of Fuengirola next month and followed by others in Adelaide and Rio de Janeiro next year.
A Cavern Club may even be opened in Moscow, where the former Soviet regime once banned citizens from listening to the Fab Four.
According to Reuters news agency, the project is being masterminded by Cavern City Tours, the company which owns the rebuilt Liverpool club.
A spokesman for the company is reported as saying that 16 cities have expressed interest in the idea, and that the new clubs would all be similar in design and decor to the one where band played its first gigs in 1961.
