Background
The ward was created for the elections held on 4 May 2023 following a 2022 review by the Local Government Boundary Commission for England, which decided that the previous 30 wards each represented by three Councillors should be replaced by 64 wards represented by 85 councillors with varying representation by one, two or three councillors per ward. The Festival Gardens ward was created as a single-member ward from the riverside section of the former St Michael's ward, small sections of the former Riverside and Mossley Hill wards. The ward boundaries follow the River Mersey, Brunswick Way, Sefton Street, Grafton Street, behind Garswood Street, Dingle Mount, Dingle Lane, Aigburth Road, Colebrook Road, Ruthin Way, Hindlip Street, the Northern Line, behind Ampthill Road, Aigburth Road and Jericho Lane. The ward contains Kirkdale Cemetery and Seeds Lane Park.
