It's a town full of firsts: taller, faster roller coasters, bigger clubs, even the biggest mirror ball in the world plus world-class shows, cosmopolitan restaurants, vibrant nightlife, an active sports scene and breathtakingly beautiful scenery on Blackpool's doorstep.
To really get away from it all, try a leisurely stroll through leafy Stanley Park, Blackpool's award-winning horticultural and wildlife treasure. Close by is the resort's small but perfectly formed Model Village and Gardens.
Hop on a tram and trundle along twelve miles of Promenade. Marvel at the musical high-tide organ which joins the ever-growing range of giant sculptures and eye-catching artworks on New South Promenade.
At the heart of Blackpool's famous Golden Mile is the Sea Life Centre, home to more than 40 fascinating displays. Nearby is one of Blackpool's oldest attractions, Louis Tussaud's Waxworks, inviting you to meet the famous and the infamous in its many galleries.
Down at the Sandcastle they're having a permanent heat wave! White knuckle water chutes, swirling slides and the giant Typhoon Lagoon wave pool combine to offer a full day of family fun.
Of course you can't see and do everything in a day, which is why Blackpool offers a wealth of accommodation for everyone - from luxury hotels to homely B&Bs apartments and caravans - to suit all budgets.
Slow it down, or paint the town, the choice is yours! We're sure you'll leave Blackpool with a care-free spirit and memories to treasure.
