“Amazing Rides And Attractions!!”
Written on: 16/03/2013
Blackpool pleasure beach is by far the best theme/ amusement park in the UK in most peoples opinion. It is now cleaner than ever and there is plenty to do weather you want to ride the pepsi max big one, one of the tallest, fastest, steepest roller coasters in the world or go for the smaller rides in the uk's only nickelodeon land. There is a huge range of rides, food and other attractions which stops you from getting bored. The pleasure beach now has an entry fee which stops any trouble... (read more)

“Start Saving money at the Pleasure Beach”
Written on: 07/01/2013 by Sarah156 (1 review written)
Every year I go with my family to the pleasure beach. We love going and the kids love going on all the rides and buying souvenirs. We have noticed that the prices are slowly rising but I have just found a new app on my phone called Blackpool Pleasure Beach. It gives different offers for the park and I like that I can navigate around the park using my phone so that I don't have to carry a map. I thought it would be good to share with everyone so that they can get the most out of their money.... (read more)

“Very poor value for money”
Written on: 24/10/2012 by Gem-82
Although I bought wristbands online for £20 each I feel as though we did not get good value for money as my eldest son only got to go on 3 rides and myself and my youngest sons only got to go on a few rides in Nickelodeon land as queues were very long and had a very long wait for them. To get to go on more rides and get value for money you would need to spend all day there. Next time I go to blackpool I will not be visiting the pleasure beach. (read more)

“Poor value or money ”
Written on: 18/10/2012
Blackpool Plesure Beach is an enjoyable attraction in Blackpool but you spend more time queing than on rides. There are a good selection of rides for everyone, however the wrist band price on the door of £35.00 for one adult is excessive if you have a larger family and you are not likely to get your moneysworth due to horndous ques especially for rides like Avelanche, Nickelodeon Streak and The Bign One. You need to be there all day to get your moneysworth if you get an adult wristband. (read more)

Me and my husband with our two 10 year old sons visited blackpool as a day out in july. In my teen years my family took us all to blackpool pleasure beach theme park and I absolutely loved it. So I decided to take my sons, we all enjoyed it. We went on a school day which ment we had no waiting to get on rides. We bought a family ticket for £91 which ment we could spend money on lunch outside the park. the atmosphere was lovely. really was a faboulsous day. However the bag search at the... (read more)

After paying £100 for family of 4 for Blackpool Pleasure Beach(£140 if not booked in advance on internet) you are then told you have to go through 'security' this is a sham in order for them to search you and rummage through your bags for food. If they find any food you are refused entry even if you have paid. Note this is done AFTER you have queued and paid for your ticket no warning is given that this might happen. When you get in if you haven't paid extra for 'que jumping' it will... (read more)

Blackpool pleasure beach is a really good day out. There are rides for every age and the whole park is very clean. All the eating areas are done lovely,I did however think that the sales of alcohol was a little to much. It was sold in every kiosk nearly!! The only problem we did have was time it took to get on the rides as the ques were not really that long they just seemed to take ages to get everyone one on and off. Some of the carriages were going out half empty! Also getting food... (read more)

Pleasure beach blackpool is simply AMAZING!!! The quality and amount of rides is unbelievably good! While it may seem expensive at first remember that you can go on the rides all day and the queues (unless at peak times)are around 20 minutes at the longest! At the busiest time I queued 35 minutes for the pepsi max big one, but it is worth a longer queue than that, it is fantastic! While the big one tops every other ride, there is one ride that beats it for me. VALHALLA is an amazing water... (read more)

Even when it's busy the queues are nothing compared to other parks, food is of high quality and prices are good. I have visited SEVEN times this year so far and will be back for at least another Three! There are wonderful cafes, fantastic restaurants and an amazing hotel. Nickelodeon Land is absolutely fantastic, Spongebobs splash bash is brilliant and its great to see they have restored rollercoaster and turned it into Nickelodeon Streak.

"Good rides once you get on them, but frustratingly long queues" Our visit did not get off to a good start. The sat nav took us 'round the houses. My advice is follow the signs! In the car, after letting another driver into the car park in front of us, a second one decided to force his way in as well. (He didn't notice the empty spaces on the left as you go in though, so he had a much longer walk than us!) Anyway, the next step was getting through the ticket office. It looked like chaos,...

I'm afraid that the shine was taken off our long-awaited day at the Pleasure Beach because officials who searched our bags would not allow usw to take in our sandwiches. We are a hard-working family and our wristbands for rides cost well over a hundred pounds. We had prepared a sandwich lunch to try to keep additional costs to a minimum. Other visitors were also upset. Some resorted to passing sandwiches through security railings -- a bit like food parcels going into a prison camp. We... (read more)

The same thing happened to our family. Although I explained that I did not realise the rule prior booking the wristbands, I was determined not to enter the park without my baguette. The over zealous, military style staff would not allow me my money back. I refuse to be told when I can eat and where I can eat. The park costs a lot of money to enter and it is a shame that it resembles a military style camp on entry. Customers are treated like criminals, and the atmosphere at entry is far from friendly. It appeared a reasonable solution to me to have my money back, not to enter the park, and take my baguette away to eat as I wish. The parrot style quotation of rules by the military staff was getting the family nowhere, the whole day had been ruined. We were offered a transfer for the following Friday, but I am afraid that the damage had been done. A bad taste in the mouth for all, totally upsetting, the park owners have taken good money from me, with nothing in return. What a travesty of human rights.

The "Pleasure Beach Police" that search you on entry took our little 3 legged folding camping stool off us, because they said it could be used as a weapon. We're a couple in ours 40s with two small boys. My wife has a spinal condition that means she can't stand for long periods. Do they care? No. So that made queuing difficult. The queues were so long, we just gave up in the end. We only went on about 6 rides - the £91 for the wristbands didn't look particularly good value in the end. And why don't the individual publish the ride prices online, so you can make some informed decisions before you arrive?

This is why I love Pleasure Beach:
The £5 pass (Pleasure Beach Pass) that people moan about is NOT just an entry pass, it improves the overall experience for anybody who just wants to soak up the atmosphere, you get to appreciate and enjoy the spectacular fountain show, seriously, sit by the fountain in the sun and soak up the atmosphere, it is amazing; additionally, you get a free show and unlimited free rides on the pleasure Beach express and in the puzzle maze.

I am originally from Blackpool but moved to the South-east more than 15 years ago. I now have 2 boys, aged 6 and 4, and took them to the Pleasure Beach during a week in Blackpool. I grew up absolutely loving everything about the Pleasure Beach.
I do appreciate that times change but the airport-style security that 'greets' you is comnpletely out of synch with other theme parks we have visited such as Chessington and Legoland Windsor. It also appears to have the ulterior motive of being a...

Amazing!
We arrived at the Pleasure Beach via train and got our tickets. We got tickets by exchanging Tesco Vouchers, so it worked out a lot cheaper. Once we were in the park,(I was there with my mum and sister) we headed straight for the Pepsi Max Big One. Even though they said the rides would open half an hour after the opening times, they opened a lot earlier. We got on the Pepsi Max in about 20 minutes and enjoyed it thoroughly!...

First off let's say that I would reccomend pleasure beach to any of the following:
- Extreme thrill seekers (Like myself)
- Family riders
- Little children [Specially once nickelodion land is developed]
- People who are new to theme parks
I would personally say that this is the best theme/amusement park in europe, having been to very many. it is also good because the queues are not very long usually. My favourite ride there just has to be Valhalla, because it delivers extreme thrills...

After promising our youngsters that they would have a great time at the pleasure beach - we always had done when we were kids, arrived to find that for some reason we were expected to pay £15 for the privilege of entering the park, £12 for the kids. Half the rides were closed, and all we wanted to do was have a walk round and go on a few rides. £15?? Not b****y likely. It was my understanding that we would then have to pay for rides on top of that! I paid £25 to go to Alton Towers, less than... (read more)

The park was only open from 11 - 5 but Beaver Creek was only operating from 12 - 4.
The park map is not accurate, Magic Mountain, Tea Cup ride, Helicopters, Lunar Carousel have been removed as that is the area that is currently being developed for Nickelodeon Land. The Zipper Dipper is still there but looked permanently closed, the Pirate Ship ride was not operating and there was a blank space where Gepetto's Horse should be. The...

Although Blackpool is seen as a cheap and cheerful resort, it still doesn't mean you can't have fun.
