The Blackpool Illuminations  2010 will be switched on September 3rd and will run until November 7th.

Blackpool’s Illuminations are switched on annually at the start of September and continue, nightly, until the first week of November. The illuminations consist of many a glowing tableau, large illuminated models, and laser lights. Fibre optics and computer control have brought a new dimension to Britain’s biggest tourist attraction. The illuminated displays stretch along the sea front from Starr Gate to Bispham. The sea front is lit up like a Belicia beacon with the view of the lights being an array of colours that can be seen afar.

Blackpool has a wonderful International firework display every year that has attracted some fierce competition from numerous international competitors. The International firework display takes place on the first weeks of the Illuminations so to book early as rooms get snapped up very quickly.

One of our guests enjoying a day out at Blackpool Pleasure Beach

“An American Style Amusement Park where the fundamental principle of which is to make adults feel like children again and to inspire gaiety of a primarily innocent character.”

Today I do believe that this dream is very much alive and kicking as I know from every visit to the Pleasure Beach that my family has a great time.

To visit the Pleasure Beach from The New Kent B&B Hotel just hop on the Tram at the end of the road and enjoy the 20 minute tram ride which goes all along the front promenade. Tram Time Table
