Tap the map and explore the town.

Since 2018, New Brighton has quietly become a canvas for local and international artists. What started with a few murals has grown into a walkable open-air gallery across the Victoria Quarter and beyond.

From Nerone’s dripping flowers to Fanakapan’s “I Heart NB” balloons, and the towering tribute to Mersey Ferry captain Mike Lowe, each piece marks a moment in the town’s story.

Follow the pins. Walk the streets. Discover the murals waiting around each corner.

Pick a marker and start exploring.
