Liverpool fell silent to remember the 30th anniversary of Hillsborough.
A minute’s silence was held across the city at 3.06pm, the time the 1989 FA Cup semi-final was halted as 96 people lost their lives during the tragedy in Sheffield.
Lanterns were also lit on the steps of St George’s Hall in memory of the victims while the Town Hall bells tolled 96 times following the silence’s conclusion.
Traffic through the Kingsway and Queensway tunnels was also halted.
Liverpool Cathedral hosted a memorial service and flags were also flown at half-mast on the city’s civic buildings for the Reds fans who were unlawfully killed.
At Anfield, The Kop was opened to allow people to sit and reflect. Liverpool’s senior, youth and women’s squads also laid wreaths at the stadium’s memorial.
Former Reds captain Steven Gerrard, whose cousin Jon-Paul Gilhooley was the youngest victim at the age of 10, paid his own tribute in an Instagram post.
Gerrard, currently in charge of Scottish side Rangers, shared a picture of the Hillsborough memorial with the simple caption ‘Never forgotten’.
Kenny Dalglish, who was the Liverpool manager at the time of Hillsborough in April 1989, also published his own tribute on Twitter.
He wrote: “Remember the 96 who lost their lives 30 years ago today, their friends, families, and the survivors.
“Gone but never forgotten. You’ll never walk alone.”
