Blackpool Illuminations are up, on and shining bright along the whole seafront from South Pier to North Pier and beyond so let's explore and drive the whole promenade taking all the best of Blackpool in as we go!
We pass the amusement arcades, the Christmas By The Sea attractions, We head past Blackpool Pleasure Beach and travel up past the hotels, bed and breakfasts and pubs and bars on the way.
The lights twinkle and shine as they light up the famous Blackpool Golden Mile and beach with their beauty and put on a show that will attract visitors and holidaymakers to the seaside to see the Illuminations this year!
The Blackpool Illuminations are a famous annual event that takes place in the seaside town of Blackpool in Lancashire, England. The illuminations consist of a spectacular display of lights along the promenade, which runs for six miles from Starr Gate to Red Bank Road. The illuminations have been a popular attraction for over 150 years, and are a key part of Blackpool's rich cultural heritage.
The Blackpool Illuminations were first introduced in 1879, when a local resident named John Bickerstaffe placed a single arc lamp outside his home. This simple idea quickly caught on, and soon other residents began to display their own lights along the promenade. The illuminations grew in popularity and became a key part of Blackpool's tourism industry, attracting visitors from all over the country.
Today, the Blackpool Illuminations are a major event that draws millions of visitors to the town each year. The illuminations consist of over one million individual lights, which are arranged along the promenade in a wide variety of shapes and patterns. The lights are illuminated every evening from late August until early November, creating a stunning display that can be seen from miles around.
In addition to the lights, the Blackpool Illuminations also feature a number of other attractions and events. There are several illuminated displays and installations along the promenade, including the famous Blackpool Tower, which is lit up with a series of dazzling light shows. The illuminations also include a number of live music and entertainment events, including concerts and fireworks displays.
Overall, the Blackpool Illuminations are a must-see event for anyone visiting the town of Blackpool. The stunning display of lights and the wide range of accompanying events and attractions make the illuminations a unique and unforgettable experience.

It was very nice of you to drive the whole road so you can show people the Blackpool lights and the coach and horses going down the road and the trams too it looks very beautiful and the dark skies and thanks for that
You're welcome thought I'd try something different!
@@GimbalWalkTV what you really mean is : It's too far to walk ... ha ha 🚶
Day 12 of these Christmas market videos loving them I remember seeing these lights 4 years ago Lovely some of them I’ve seen AND there Still there now
Agreed!
Loved driving through Blackpool with you was so unexpected but enjoyable. Not as many lights now than years ago but still festive thanks for this keep on driving 👍❤️🚙
It’s a shame all the lights aren’t maintained better as there seemed to be gaps between some of them 😢
Yeah a few gaps in them this year
Thanks Mr Gimbal, I enjoyed the ride ... it's quite a trek from one end to the other ‼️
So sitting back in that passenger seat and letting you do the driving was relaxing . . . I enjoyed the Christmas Medley too but you should have ended the video with " Driving Home for Christmas" (Rea I think 🤔).
Keep em coming ... 🚶🚶🚶
With the cost of energy soaring this is what I call luxury.
So true!
Enjoyed the illumination drive of blackpool😊
@@desmondweekes8271 Glad to hear that.
i remember the chockolate eclairs across the road from the north pier they were about 12 inches long iv not seen them last time i come to blackpool actually it was central pier they were nice
Crikey - I bet they filled you up!
yes dont know if they still sell them any where not been to blackpool for quite a few years@@GimbalWalkTV
thanks
thanks
So looking forward to this!
I haven't had a drive down Blackpool Lights since 2017.
I'm going to watch this later this evening when im all settled down☺️
Hope you like it - let me know!
@@GimbalWalkTV absolutely fantastic Neil.
It was so relaxing, I felt like I was there with you!
The huge Catherine Wheel looked amazing with all the coloured lights on!
And of course Blackpool Tower always looks illuminating!
I thought all the lights were lovely I think they were a bigger display than the ones I last went to see in 2017.
I bet you enjoyed them just as much driving thru Blackpool & sharing this with us ☺️
Thanks Neil, love the Illuminations at Blackpool! So festive! Had to look for any old trams, only spotted the train one, which is fine, it's one of my favourites! Cheers!
When I go next I will do one on the old teams for you ❤️
Good video
Thanks for the tour. Lived in Blackpool in the 1980's lights were 100 times better, lame in comparison
Times are tough - money is tight - there's a recession on so I'm guessing that plays it's part sadly
You make people sleep thank you very much 😂
Thanks for watching and contributing to my great success ❤️
When was this video actually filmed please ?
November I think
Sign of the times, the worst Blackpool illuminations I've ever seen! 🥱
😮
David: They weren't absolutely great, I've seen better, but I thought they were ok and rather pretty ‼️
The effort to put all these lights up every year should be appreciated 👍
