Yellow Submarine Sculpture, Liverpool
Facts and practical information
The Yellow Submarine in Liverpool is a large model representation of the submarine featured in the 1968 animated film Yellow Submarine, inspired by the 1966 song of the same name on the Beatles album Revolver. It was built by a group of about 80 apprentices from Cammell Laird's shipyard, designed in part by Mr L Pinch, a draughtsman at the yard, for exhibition at the International Garden Festival in Liverpool in 1984. The Submarine was in a garden themed around the Beatles, one of 60 such themed gardens, and was highly popular. The garden took the form of an apple-shaped labyrinth, containing symbolic references to the group, and included a bronze statue of John Lennon, which now stands at Liverpool John Lennon Airport. ()
