EspañolPLEASURE BEACH BLACKPOOL
(Redirected from Blackpool Pleasure Beach)
'Pleasure Beach, Blackpool' (formerly "Blackpool Pleasure Beach") is a family owned amusement park in the town of Blackpool in Lancashire, UK.
The park was founded in 1896 by Alderman William George Bean, who said his intent was to create "...an American Style Amusement Park, the fundamental principle of which is to make adults feel like children again and to inspire gaiety of a primarily innocent character."
The park was then managed by Bean's brother in law Leonard Thompson until the 1970s and then by Leonard's son Mr. William Geoffrey Thompson until his death in 2004. It is now managed by his daughter Amanda Thompson who is also the Managing Director of Stageworks Worldwide Productions who produce the shows at the park.
BPB Is a playable scenario in the wildly popular theme-park running simulation game Rollercoaster Tycoon (available with the loopy landscapes expansion pack).
Pleasure Beach, Blackpool has a mixture of traditional wooden rides, modern steel roller-coasters, small family rides, highly-advanced thrill rides and generations-old rides still in original working order. Some regular visitors believe that the Pleasure Beach has been neglected over the past few years, although the park is currently re-branding with new rides and shows.
Another major attraction is the ice shows, including 'Eclipse' and 'Hot Ice', and a casino.
The Pleasure Beach has recently been undergoing a major refurbishment - mainly with the parks rebranding to "Pleasure Beach, Blackpool", many of the wooden rollercoasters have been repainted, and most of the walkways have been resurfaced. The park as a whole is looking much cleaner and safer. The refurbishments are continuing throughout 2007 which will see many of the signs in the park replaced. 2007 is also the opening of Pleasure Beach, Blackpool's brand new white-knuckle ride "Infusion" - a suspended looping coaster entirely over water. Although the name of this latest ride has caused some embarrassment for the park. "Infusion" is also the name of a swingers club in the town which some locals have been campaigning to close. A google search for "Blackpool" and "Infusion" lists the club's website in the top two spaces and the Pleasure Beach only in third.
Pleasure Beach, Blackpool attracts about 6 million visitors a year.
In the recently published "Attendance 2006" figures for worldwide theme parks, Pleasure Beach, Blackpool was joint 11th theme park in the world by attendance - joint with Universal Studios, Orlando, Florida with 6 million visitors. It was the only UK amusement park to make it onto the 'Top 25 Parks in the World' list.
Entrance to the park is free. Rides are paid for individually using tickets which are on sale throughout the park. Alternatively, unlimited ride wristbands are available at a price of approximately £25 per wristband, but the price varies depending on promotion and time of year, and can be as little as £10 per person. A separate section of the park, Beaver Creek, offers a separate wristband for younger guests.
