Beneath The Lights Of Home (At the Wurlitzer Organ - Tower Ballroom, Blackpool) [Remastered] - Phil Kelsall

Blackpool Tower - A place worth visiting

Advantages: The whole day can be spent in the Tower
Disadvantages: Very expensive

The Blackpool Tower is one of the main tourist attractions in Blackpool, situated on the promenade. The Tower was built in 1894 and in height it stands at 158m (518ft) tall, The Blackpool Tower can be seen from other places such as Morecambe Bay and in September the Tower is illuminated which is a beautiful sight. I have visited Blackpool on several occasions and each time I have made a point to go to the Tower, there are a number of activities in the Tower which are suitable for all ages. Over the years Blackpool Tower has changed in many ways and it is as enjoyable now as it was when I first visited Blackpool. The Tower Ballroom - The Tower Ballroom has been in the Tower from 1897, the ballroom is absolutely amazing and has held shows such as Strictly Come Dancing among others, there are also shows held in the Ballroom on certain ...

A Towering Success And Towers Of Fun

Advantages: Much To Do, Fantastic Views
Disadvantages: Can be Pricy

's fabulous coast. These days the interior building has become one of the biggest attractions Blackpool has to offer alone! As you walk through the town centre or along the prom you will be almost flattened by posters screaming for you to visit Mooky the circus clown in the Tower Circus or waltz along to the Wurlitzer in the Tower Ballroom. Some might say given the advertising you may forget the initial purpose of the attraction was for those to observe views up its 500ft tower! Anyways enough about advertising. I know I am trying to sell this place to you but there is OTT. Should you decide to visit Blackpool tower then you need to work out which is the best way to the entrance. Unlike most Blackpool attractions the tower has two entrances, one facing the town centre opposite HMV and one along the promenade, adjacent to North Pier. If you decide ...

Blackpool tower what a let down

Advantages: good view on a nice day
Disadvantages: where do i start?

I hadn't been up Blackpool tower since i was 8 so to say this visit with my husband and 2 year old (plus a new one in a pram) was a disappointment is an understatement. We went with another couple who have a 3 year old boy so we were looking to make it a big day out. Firstly the shabby entrance is not the most inviting. There is no ramp at the front to allow ease of access for prams or wheelchairs. You have to enter the back way for this. Secondly the prices. It shopuld have been £33 for a family of 3 so i questioned our little lads age to see if he could get in for free. I was told he had to stand against a board with a picture of the tower on it. The basics were if he was taller than the tower - he had to pay. Now my lad is approx 3ft and he was a whole head above the tower. Luckily we had a free child entry vouvher with us as ...
