"During China Dream, unique, revolutionary artists and photographers will be commissioned to create one-off pieces which showcase the best of Chinese contemporary culture," said a city spokeswoman.

In the summer, Shanghai, Liverpool's twin city, takes over the world-famous River Mersey waterfront to present Shanghai.

It will feature 10 of its best emerging artists, as well as a special showcase from the Shanghai Film Festival, which will bring the latest in Chinese film to an English-speaking audience.

China Dream concludes in October with a celebration of the Moon Festival, China's "golden week" harvest-time holiday, where some of the biggest names in the country's pop music scene will descend on the Mersey to bring the latest Chinese sounds to Liverpool music lovers.

The city spokesman added: "We are working with some amazing performers and artists in China to present what will be an amazing festival in Liverpool."
