The last time i came to Blackpool Pleasure Beach i was surprised to find out that any one who enters the theme park with a child and is not going on the rides has to pay for a ticket in as well! I managed to go from the back and avoid this but another family member went another way and told me that they had to pay for just coming ...

Blackpool Pleasure Beach is an amusement park located in Blackpool in the UK. I went here last year for the first time last year and I have to say that I enjoyed it 100%. I would advise you all, as soon as you get there, have a walk around the park to see what there is first, as it will save time later. There are a great number of rides, some for ...

As you probably will have heard, it now costs £20 to get in the pleasure beach, even if your not going on rides, so maybe it isn't the place to go just for a look around, but if your looking for some wild rides then here is the place to go! The latest rollercoaster there is 'In Fusion', the 5 looping rollercoaster over water and it is worth ...

Blackpool Pleasure Beach or Pleasure Beach Blackpool as it's now knwn is situated in the South Shore area of Blackpool. The park was first opened in 1896 by Alderman William George Bean. The park has over 125 attractions including 12 rollercoasters and of course the Pepsi Max Big One. Whilst there I was a little dissapointed ...

Blackpool Pleasure Beach is a family run amusement park which is currently the most visited tourist attraction within the UK and it is easy to see why. It was founded in 1896 by Alderman William George Bean. The park is situated along the South Shore area of Blackpool. The main entrance is to the left of the park and approximately 70 ...

---History--- 1896-1920s Alderman William George Bean founded Pleasure Beach, Blackpool in 1896 and bought the forty two acre site on which the Pleasure Beach now stands. Various rides, including the still popular Sir Hiram Maxim Flying Machines, were introduced to the area. The First World War curtailed further development of the ...

Unbelievably Blackpool pleasure beach has been standing in the same spot now for over 100 years (since 1896 to be precise). This place has been bringing fun to all ages for all those years and has only ever gotten better and better. I have been visiting the Pleasure beach since I was a young girl, my first time here I was only six years old and I ...

Blackpool was one of those sea side places that I was always taken too when I was a kid, that and Llandudno for some reason, however when Blackpool was mentioned I always used to get excited because the tackiness of Blackpool is exciting for a kid. However, as I have got older, I don't seem to have grown out of Blackpool being one of ...

Blackpool pleasure beach has been an institution of fun for people of all ages for many years now and throughout this review I intend to give you not only an insight into what it has to offer today but also an insight into the history of this great theme park. The year was 1896 and W.G Bean bought the 42 acre sight that would become ...

Blackpool Pleasure Beach - Probably the most famous of the Blackpool attractions attracts about 6.2 million visitors per year, in my opinion it is best to visit within the months of good weather as some of the rides may be closed in adverse weather conditions, unfortunately as this is usually the busiest time I recommend arriving at the park early ...

I have really fond memories of Blackpool and indeed Blackpool Pleasure Beach. Living in Manchester, we are only around 45 minutes drive up the Motorway from Blackpool and so I'm sure you can imagine the number of times we have been! **A little bit about Blackpool** Situated on the Fylde Coast in the North West of ...

Last week (21st - 28th August 2004), I have been on holiday at Blackpool. On Tuesday, I went to the Blackpool Pleasure Beach, and I can tell you now, it was worth the wait and money to go there! All the rides were fantastic. This was my first time in the Pleasure Beach so I had to go on the Pepsi Max Big One. ...

My Dad loves his rides. I quite like them, but I must make it clear that the balding farmer and father of three lives for the adrenalin rush of a good rollercoaster. Every fortnight he takes my brothers, and me if I?m not feeling ?ill? again, to the American Adventure Theme Park in Derby, but he does ...

Blackpool - A seaside town not so sought after in the aftermath of a boom in holidaying in which tourists venture to destinations littering the globe as opposed to limiting their travels to this country. Tourists (I hate to use this phrase with it?s connotations of old men and women) nowadays have a much wider choice as to where they spend their ...

What a day! No Q's longer than 15 mins. Managed to get on all the best rides, nice to see constant re-investment in the park. There is a new vertual game opposite the Wild Mouse which looks fun. The Vikingar Water Chute is in the middle of a re-vamp, which will hopefully make the ride more popular, as it attractions about 100 ...

We were about to go up the hill and it broke down for 3 minutes, then we broke down half way up the hill, and we went down the big hill where its foggy, and the water had caught fire and it was like a firewall blockin us, but we went straight through it. And because we were delayed at goin up the hill, the timing of the fireballs was wrong, and ...

You don't usually visit The Pleasure Beach by accident. However no matter how much time and effort you put in to planning the trip there is something that always catches you off guard. Take the car parking charges for instance.. At the official car parks dotted around the Park a charge of £7 may be enough to make anyone's stomach ...
