In 1969 the venue was the Amsterdam Hilton and John Lennon and Yoko Ono were spending their honeymoon campaigning for world peace.
They spent a week in bed-in the hotel, in the full glare of the world's media.
Fast forward to 2010 and to celebrate Lennon's 70th birthday Liverpool's Bluecoat arts centre is, for the next two months, inviting people to emulate John and Yoko's protest.
BBC Radio Merseyside will be broadcasting live throughout Friday 8 October to mark the anniversary.
Programmes being broadcast live from the bed include Sean Styles 1000BST -1200BST, Roger Phillips 1200BST-1400BST and Billy Butler 1400BST-1700BST.
