Droves of visitors come to Blackpool year round to sample some of the local delights and view the one-of-a-kind Blackpool Tower. Here is a brief guide to some of the must-see attractions currently on offer in Black-Vegas!
Blackpool Pleasure Beach
This famous family theme park will titillate the whole family for as many days as you care to spend there. The historic rollercoasters, including the Wild Mouse, the Revolution, the Big Dipper, Infusion, and the Pepsi Max Big One, will leave thrill-seekers of all ages thirsty for more! Popular for more than a century, the fun-filled atmosphere, the short lines, and the resonating sound of happy screaming have established Pleasure Beach as the premier theme park in England.
Blackpool Tower
If you’re looking for an enormous tower and excellent views of the nearby area, you will love the fun-packed Blackpool Tower. Don your dancing shoes on and enjoy a slow waltz in the beautiful Ballroom, then unleash the kids in the generous Jungle Gym to burn off some energy. Before you leave, take a climb to the top of this magnificent tower, and scan the beaches, the people, and the coasters below.
Blackpool Illuminations
Before you sample the local casinos, you might want to take a ride on one of the illuminated open buses or trams to view the spectacular illuminations.
