Blackpool Illuminations with £1 Bar 2024

Let your hair down in Blackpool and experience the famous Illuminations on our great value midweek break with a £1 bar nightly!

There is plenty to do for all ages on a traditional British seaside holiday to Blackpool at any time of the year. This iconic destination is the stuff of old English postcards, known for its fun and humour and offers something for everyone, from its long, flat promenade and Blackpool Tower, to the Illuminations that adorn the promenade every year. There is also the high-tech adrenaline of its famed Pleasure Beach and its three distinctive piers dotted along the golden beach, where you should make sure you pick up a stick of Blackpool rock. It offers a mix of thrills, fun, laughs, and relaxation. What more could you want?

Quite rightly hailed as the seaside entertainment capital of the UK, this midweek holiday is the perfect opportunity to revisit your favourite haunts – or find out what all the fuss is about, at the best time to see the resort with the fabulous spectacle that is the Blackpool Illuminations. With six miles of traditional festoons, tableaux and interactive features along the Promenade, no wonder it’s commonly known as the greatest free light show on Earth!

You’ll be staying in the popular Georgian Hollies Hotel, close to the Blackpool Tower and Winter Gardens and – as you’d expect from a Blackpool hotel – it is well known for its fabulous evening entertainment and we’ve even thrown in a £1 bar to make absolutely sure you have a great time! You’ll have plenty of time to explore Blackpool and we’ve also laid on an evening tour of the fabulous Illuminations, plus a great excursion to the nearby Lancshire coastal towns of Fleetwood and Morecambe . Finally, we also discover the Victorian seaside resort of Southport with its picturesque promenade and one of the UK’s oldest iron piers for you to enjoy and explore!

An ideal choice for:

* Blackpool fans and traditional seaside lovers of all ages.
* Anyone curious to find out what all the fuss is about and hasn’t seen the must see Illuminations!
* Anyone who loves great entertainment and fun at an amazing price and great inclusions!
