Blackpool Piers 

Most seaside resorts have a pier - Blackpool has three...each with its own unique character!

North Pier
The North Pier was completed in the mid-1860s and has been extended and updated since then. It now houses an amusement arcade, a number of bars and a 1500 seat theatre that attracts some of the biggest names in the business.

Central Pier
Central pier was built shortly after the North Pier and is instantly recognisable with its large Ferris Wheel. It also has bars, amusement arcades and a theatre, providing family fun, whatever the weather.

South Pier
Blackpools South Pier was opened to the public in the 1890s and quickly gained a reputation as a classy venue. Today, the South Pier is in fact a mini amusement park, complete with dodgems and white knuckle rides.

Blackpool Pleasure Beach 

Billed as the UKs biggest tourist attraction, Blackpool Pleasure Beach turns a family fun day into an adventure.

The younger family members will simply love Beaver Creek, a mini theme park filled with dragons, caterpillars and all manner of carousels.

For the thrill seekers, Blackpool Pleasure Beach contains an ever growing array of white knuckle rides that turn and twist higher, faster and more stomach churning than ever!

It is also home to Europes tallest and fastest roller coaster, the Pepsi Max Big One. Are you brave enough to ride?

Blackpool Zoo 

If you visit Blackpool with kids then you must visit Blackpool Zoo!

Blackpool Zoo houses over 1500 animals including elephants, lions, tigers and a huge variety of primates.

Feeding times are not to be missed so don't forget to pick up a leaflet. There you get to see the amazing bond between the animals and the keepers.

Kids can travel back in time to come face to face with the mighty T. Rex in Dinasaur Safari, complete with gushing volcano and a smouldering meteor!

Blackpool zoo manages to blend conservation with education, with a range of talks and school visits. Give their dedicated education team a call.

Overall, Blackpool zoo is well worth a visit!

Ride On Blackpool Trams! 

Blackpool trams have been in service since 1885, carrying over 6 million passengers a year along the promenade from Starr Gate to Fleetwood.
