Blackpool hen parties

It's time for a hen party in Blackpool!

Blackpool is a city that simply lives to entertain its visitors - and you know they're getting something right when it's consistently voted the UK's most popular seaside destination! Your bride to be will most certainly leave on a high and the whole group is undoubtedly going to enjoy a whole lot of good, old-fashioned fun! Some refer to Blackpool as the North's answer to Las Vegas and, apart from the UK climate, it really is a close comparison. We know what we're doing with Blackpool hen parties, so let us do the hard work!

There's so much more to Blackpool than the world famous illuminations - with beaches, fantastic activities and a glitzy nightlife, it's the perfect choice for a fun loving hen groups over and over again! There's a healthy selection of activities to choose from, including pampering days, Glee dancing, afternoon tea and wine tasting, all topped off with a fantastic range of evening entertainment. You can try out our fantastic Boogie Bus, casino evening and comedy club activities which hundreds of our Blackpool hen parties have absolutely loved in the past. As well as all of this good stuff, there's a great shopping scene - Houndshill shopping centre has a huge range of shops, plus some fantastic sights like the giggle-worthy Comedy Carpet! Mix it up with these Blackpool hen activities.

You can indulge in some excellent retail therapy in Blackpool. Right in the heart is the Houndshill Shopping Centre which is just a stones throw away from the Promenade. All the main high street stores are here, including Primark, H&M, Debenhams and River Island, and there's also a Food Deck with some great cafes for a break between shopping. Venture outside the centre and explore independent boutique shops, such as Blueberries on Topping Street which has a great selection of garments and footwear. For your hen party, Blackpool really does have it all!

Blackpool has a huge annual events calendar, with shows, concerts, festivals and special events all year round. Known as the Dance Capital of the World there's the fantastic Blackpool annual Dance Festival in May every year, before locals celebrate the British Armed Forces with a week of events in June. In July there's the Comedy Carpet Live with great comedy shows all weekend and in September there's the World Firework Championships taking to the stage with amazing displays in the skies. From August until November the Blackpool Illuminations remain lit, the greatest free light show on earth. Whatever time of the year you visit there's bound to be something on- mix in a bit of event sightseeing with some fantastic activities and you'll have an unforgettable Blackpool hen party.

Although Blackpool isn't a big place, it's worth considering how you and your group will get around and to and from your accommodation and activities. This town still retains a charming tramway which dates back from the Victorian era and can be used today! Sadly, most of the trams which run along the seafront are modern but once in a while, it's possible to catch a real, old-fashioned carriage in the summer months. For a real blast from the past, you can even travel in style in a ‘landau' or classic horse drawn carriage or failing this, a slightly more speedy bus service. We would suggest donkey rides but these beasts don't tend to be particularly reliable...
