BBC Radio 5 Live at the ADA


07 April 2010

For the run up the Grand National, BBC Radio 5 Live will be broadcasting from LJMU's Art and Design Academy.

The station will showcase many of its key programmes in front of live audiences in the City and will be the place to get the build up atmosphere and key interviews around the National.

You can be part of the audience at the broadcasts over the two days. Free tickets are available at bbc.co.uk/5live. The station will launch a search to find Liverpool's next budding Alan Green or John Motson, as would-be commentators get the chance to be trained in the craft by Radio 5 Live's football commentary team at the station's broadcast base at John Moores University from 10am on Friday 9 April.

Radio 5 live Commissioning Editor Jonathan Wall said: "The Grand National is always a really special moment for BBC Sport and this year we've brought large parts of Radio 5 Live to Liverpool to really experience the magic of the occasion. We'll also be keeping a close eye on any talented commentators we can unearth at John Moores."
