With summer drawing to an end for one more year it was great for our Wild Thang team who have worked so hard this year to meet up outside of the workplace for our summer social event. The team first met up outside the Liver buildings, It was a picture perfect evening with vibrant blue sky’s and we was taken on an exclusive guided tour to enjoy the spectacular 360° views of the Liverpool skyline from the 15th-floor viewing platform and then made the short walk to the brilliant Ma Boyles for drinks and food as a team.
The Liver building skyline tour was an amazing experience for the whole team, standing at 322 feet tall the view from the 15th-floor viewing platform was nothing short of breathtaking, It really gave the team a chance to relax and take in the world famous Liverpool skyline. Along with the view, we were also given a spectacular immersive Audio-Visual show inside the historic clock tower and learn all about Liverpool’s iconic landmark and some key moments in the cities history.

A favourite part of the tour for everyone was when the team got to see some of the retail merchandise we have produced here at Wild Thang for the Royal Liver Building 360 available on the tour alongside the NHS shirts we also produced in the past. It really was branding in action you don’t get to experience, and it spotlighted to the team where hard work goes.

After the tour we made the short walk across the road to one of the oldest and best pubs in Liverpool, opening in 1870 to this day in 2022 Ma Boyle’s is still setting the standard for great cocktails, local ales, and delicious home-cooked food. Upon arrival, we were taken to a private room in the basement to enjoy some food and drinks as a team.
We know the importance of thanking key member of our team so we took time out at Ma Boyles to celebrate some significant long term Wild Thang work anniversaries.
