The Beatles will open a museum on the site of their last gig

Sir Paul said the idea to move back in was proposed by Tom Greene, who became CEO of Apple Corps in 2025, after previously working on the Harry Potter franchise.

"He's a live wire and he's bringing a lot of energy into looking at what the Beatles mean, and what people want these days from us," said Sir Paul.

In a statement, Sir Ringo Starr said revisiting the property recently was "like coming home". Sir Paul called it "such a trip".

"There are so many special memories within the walls, not to mention the rooftop. The team have put together some really impressive plans and I'm excited for people to see it when it's ready."

Fans can already see Beatles memorabilia at Liverpool's Beatles Museum and the nearby Beatles Story - but neither are officially licensed by the band.

People also flock to Sir Paul's childhood home in Allerton, Strawberry Fields and the house where George Harrison was born in Wavertree.

The locations are so popular that, last week, a code of conduct was introduced for tour guides and visitors, in order to protect local residents.

Meanwhile, both Sir Paul and Sir Ringo are releasing new music.
