Laces Out Trainer Festival – Boxpark Liverpool, 7th June
Believe it or not, 2025 marks the 11th year of LACES OUT! Trainer Festival, an event that is all about sneakers, as you might have gathered from the name.
It’s a celebration of fashion, lifestyle, and all things footwear, so long as that footwear is trainers. It’s the biggest festival of its kind in the North West apparently, although you have to wonder how much competition there is for that particular accolade.
Nevertheless, if you are a fan of sneakers, a collector, or you just fancy a pair of new trainers and are ready to splash some cash on a pair that are hard to come by, BoxPark Liverpool on the 7th of June is the place to be.
There will be thousands of rare, vintage, hype and dead stock trainers, fashion pieces and collectables to buy, or just look at longingly if you can’t afford them.
Seriously though, for anyone who is into this kind of thing, LACES OUT! is the main event.
Some of the biggest collectors and vendors from far and wide will be there, but it’s not just a pop-up marketplace. On top of the buying opportunities there is a DJ, live music performances, panel guests, competitions, and plenty of food and drink options.
It’s a festival in every sense of the word, albeit a short one, and it looks like it will be great fun.
Tickets and Prices
It’s not particularly expensive to get in to the event, but it’s only on for the one day, 7th of June, so best to book as early as possible to avoid missing out.
Tickets cost the following amounts:
- General entry at 1pm – £11.00
- Q-Jump entry at midday – £16.50
- Ultra entry at midday plus LACES OUT! Tote bag with free gifts from event sponsors – £22.00
These prices include the booking fees.
Of course, the idea of getting in early is to scope out all the best trainers before anyone else can get their hands on them, but if you aren’t desperate for something ultra rare you may as well wait an hour at go it at 1pm on a general ticket.
The event closes at 5pm and last entry is at 4pm.
