9th February


On 9 February 1961 The Beatles appeared at the Cavern Club for the very first time. It was a lunchtime session with an audience of about 100 people - mostly workers from nearby offices and shops on their lunch break. This would be the first of 292 performances at the club. Just 3 years later ALSO on 9 February 1964 they made their first appearance on US television on the Ed Sullivan show with an estimated audience of 73 million people!
