+ MY LIST

Built in 1894, The Blackpool Tower is one of the most iconic buildings in the UK and one of Britain’s best-loved landmarks. A trip to the top can be used in the classroom for history lessons, geography, and even spark imagination for storytelling in English and Drama.

Before you head up in the lift, visit the 4D cinema and see a short exiting film about the history and heritage of Blackpool and its infamous Tower, compete with 3D imagery and 4D effects, including bubbles and rain!

The top of the tower has 3 viewing heights, one indoors and 2 outdoors. There are touch screens situated around the indoor level pointing out landmarks in every direction.
