Re: Blackpool illuminations

We went last night, attempted to drive through and then gave up, it was late and the kids had had enough by this point so wasnt too bad but what they did see they enjoyed, saw the fireworks, they all enjoyed that but the traffic was absolutely crazy. Didnt take any photos though

How long are the illuminations on for? Haven't been for years and the firework displays are an added bonus. Might just treat the grandkids to a visit
