What is the Blackpool Illuminations?
Stretching for 6 miles along the Blackpool Promenade ‘The Lights’, as they’re fondly called, consist of spectacular displays using over one million light bulbs. A vast collection of characters and themes are displayed, along with lasers, searchlights and more. All of the buildings and famous landmarks along this stretch are also adorned with lights – the Blackpool Tower and the Pleasure Beach are just two of the attractions which are lit up.
