Blackpool Pleasure Beach

Blackpool Pleasure Beach is the UK’s favourite award-winning amusement park, with rides and attractions, spectacular shows found throughout its 42-acre site making it the world’s most ride intensive park. Home to the steel mega-coaster that is the Big One, the UK’s only Nickelodeon Land and the world’s first Wallace & Gromit ride, Thrill-O-Matic, Blackpool Pleasure Beach is full of world firsts. The world’s first looping rollercoaster, Revolution; the world’s first fully-suspended coaster, Infusion; the world’s largest dark ride, Valhalla and the one of the world’s oldest rides, Sir Hiram Maxim’s Flying Machines. Blackpool Pleasure Beach has one of the best collections of “woodies” in the world with the Big Dipper, one of Europe’s only twin-tracked rollercoasters in the Grand National, the twisting and turning Wild Mouse, the bright and exhilarating Nickelodeon Streak and it’s smaller sister, the Blue Flyer making up a fine selection of heritage coasters you will ever see. This is before you see the “steelies”, from the iconic Big One to the Steeplechase; the amusement park is a mecca for adrenalin junkies who like their excitement fast and furious. Sitting in the shadow of the Big One, Infusion is a heady mix of speed, twists, turns and sensations, which unleash emotions, only a coaster enthusiast can explain. Family thrills and memories that will last a lifetime are assured and there is plenty to keep all ages amused on the 42-acre attraction. Nickelodeon Land opened in 2011 and is home to 12 amazing rides, a whole host of Nickelodeon characters themed around the world’s number one children’s entertainment channel. The park also plays home to the spectacular Hot Ice Show from the Pleasure Beach Arena. Take your seats in the theatre for a glamorous, fast moving ice show packed with hundreds of sequin-studded costumes and incredibly daring lifts.
