we really like blackpool as a family break as it appeals to all 4 of us being 2 adults a teenager and 8 year old. we visit every few years. The tower we visit on almost every occasion. We use tesco clubcards for all the attractions so works out as a fairly low cost break. The tower has always been... more

Excellent value, 2 hours of circus and all the tower attractions too. The acts performing the circus were superb, and from as far away as China, The first half was traditional circus entertainment, the second was more modern for e.g. on a BMX type bike and a breakdancing. My children preferred the first half. Mooky was also excellent, and the... more

Planned day. Got to tower. 3pm Circus not on today. Still full price though. 1.5-2 hour wait for the top of the tower. Chaos at Jungle Jim's. Even staff complaining about management. Welcome to the tower. Easier to stand outside for 3 hours and put £20 down a grid every hour. more

Took my two grandchildren and daughter to Blackpool Tower on 25th October 2009 and found the whole experience disappointing. There seemed to be far too many people allowed in as just getting around was a nightmare due to the hordes of people (I hope that they are well trained in evacuating the building in case of fire) both my daughter... more
