If you find yourself around the Fylde Coast this Autumn and Winter, why not head down to the Promenade and check out the historical Blackpool Illuminations!

Take a trip down memory lane at the Blackpool Illuminations!

This year’s seafront display, stretching more than five miles, includes a series of new features:

  • A spectacular new installation by the Illuminations’ creative curator, Laurence Llewellyn-Bowen. Entitled Disco Donkey Cavalcade, it is a celebration of one of Blackpool’s iconic beach attractions, with 12 donkeys dressed in 70s-inspired swimwear parading on a 16ft high platform, beneath a giant ice cream topped with a disco ball!
  • A brand new tableau, created by Leigh Francis (aka TV star Keith Lemon) featuring a wildly imaginative and colourful design incorporating a 12ft tall dinosaur, space ship, astronaut, an airborne BMX bike, and Leigh himself flying through the skies towards The Blackpool Tower!
  • A larger-than-life Buzz Wire arcade game in which visitors will be able to test their skill and nerve on a specially designed installation reflecting Blackpool’s famous skyline. Created by the Illuminations’ Lightworks team, it is located on the Golden Mile.
  • And so much more . . .

Why not check out when Partington’s switched on the Illuminations earlier this year to celebrate 80 Years!
