Blackpool Tower

To get the chance to stage an event in a world famous landmark is very rare indeed. Yet that opportunity exists, here at the heart of the UK's most popular holiday destination. The prestige alone which Blackpool Tower could bring to your event is invaluable. Then there's the unarguable wow factor, the Tower Ballroom and Tower Circus Arena are quite simply two of the most staggering examples of Victorian architecture you will ever have seen. When Blackpool Tower opened in 1894, the first visitors stood in awe of the remarkable design, immense scale and ornate decoration. Even today, both the Tower Ballroom and Circus Arena elicit exactly the same reaction.

Circus Arena
Home of the UK's only permanent Circus for more than a hundred years, the spectacular Tower Circus Arena occupies the space at the base of the Tower's four legs.

The multi award-winning Tower Circus, Blackpool's longest running show, plays to packed audiences up to four times a day. Out of season, the venue has been booked by several artists including top British comedian Peter Kay. The unique capability of flooding the Circus Arena also allows this extraordinary venue to host more unusual events such as the Model Boat Show.

With gilded plasterwork, intricate painted frescos, elaborate parquet dance floor and two tier balconies, the Tower Ballroom frequently resounds to the timeless sounds of the Tower Big Bands and world famous Wurlitzer Organ.
Its imposing stage and vast capacity make it an ideal choice for concerts, featuring bands and solo artistes appealing to a wide range of musical and dance tastes.
The Tower Ballroom hosts regular special interest events including the annual Christmas Tree Ball and Junior Dance Festival.
Its unequalled grandeur, charm and ambience persuaded the BBC to choose this unique venue for their hit show, Strictly Come Dancing.
