THE
GREAT PROMENADE SHOW
In 1996 a major coast protection scheme raised
teh level of the New South Promenade by two metres to protect
local properties from flooding. The original promenade and
its worn features were swept away and replaced with a contemporary
public space.
The
Great Promenade Show stretches two kilometres from Squires
Gate to the Sandcastle. It includes ten features specially
commissioned from established and emerging artists and designers.
The sculptures are unique interpretations of a variety of
Blackpool's environments.
Some
come to life at night whilst others produce mysterious sounds
or mesmeric movement. They are amusing, awe-inspiring and
challenging. Some invite closer inspection and exploration
whilst others will bring back fond memories. They deliberately
raise more questions than answers. You might not like them
all but there's definetely something interesting for everyone.

BLACKPOOL
ILLUMINATIONS
The
incomparable Blackpool Illuminations - the greatest free show
on earth, start on the 2nd September, lighting up the resorts
extended holiday season until the 6th November, with over
6 miles of displays.
Back in Victorian times, Blackpool was the first town in the
country to 'go electric'. A century later, the resort's love
affair with light endures. Every autumn, when other seaside
resorts close down, Blackpool becomes a blaze of coloured
lights with "the greatest free show on earth" -
Blackpool Illuminations. Fibre optics and computer control
have brought a new dimension to Britain's biggest tourist
attraction. The display stretches along Blackpool's famous
seafront for over five miles transforming the Promenade into
a wonderland of colour.
Each year spectacular new sections are added to the display.
It's Britain's favourite autumn break, so take a trip to Blackpool
lights. It's nicer with the lights on!
