What a great day out, the 4D cinema was really outstanding, I loved it. The views over Blackpool were excellent, I have lived in Blackpool or 12 years but the first time up the tower. The circus is also a place to spend a couple of hours, funny, Skilful and a great time for the family, Mooky is loveable. Hope... More

Lovely panoramic views of Blackpool 360 and a wonderful wonderful 4D experience which was really lovely and added to the overall experience. It was quiet when we went but id hate to have gone up when it was busy think it would have spoilt it a bit so aim for the quieter times.

You must do the 4D experience, such an improvement since my last visit. Do walk on the glass foor, even I did it and I am terrified of heights.

Had to visit the Tower while in Blackpool, the whole experience is very slick and the views are not a disappointment. A little expensive for how long you actually stay in there, really wanted to look at the Ballroom only to find I needed a extra admission ticket!! Not included in the £12.95 I had already paid which is a... More

We never ventured to the Tower summit (scared of heights) but had a fantastic time in the ballroom watching the dancing and listening to organists supplying the music and the unique sound of the Wurlitzer suits the ballroom atmosphere perfectly. It's also wonderful to sit in the partial conservatory and a view many a resort must envy and still here... More

We took our two boys aged 4 and 7 to the tower for the day at a cost of £100 based on nostalgia from our own childhood, how wrong we were the ballroom apart which is pretty amazing you get an hour for the kids to play in a ball pool that any family pub has and two hour of... More
