    Excellent day out, we had visited the tower in the morning and the circus didn't finish till 3pm! We had booked wristbands online. Veery quick and easy to get in to the park and managed to go on 12 rides in total, hardly any queing even though it was a nice day. The wristbands were quite expensive but worth it. We ate at the burger king on site which was fine. Some staff on the rides seemed a bit bored, but what do you expect! The pleasure beach closed at 7pm a lot later than other theme parks. ...

    booked Blackpool Pleasure Beach on the internet as we were taking our grandchildren - 6 and 4 years.

    still waited 1 hour to get into the park. then had to queue for every ride.

    although we got there at 12 noon, we only managed about 6 rides. not too much for the under '5's. won't be going again - staff miserable and unhelpful. apart from when they wanted money from you. rides were badly signposted.

    only plusses - food okay in a cafe - also, had some fun at the water show. this was out ...

    Visiting Blackpool Pleasure Beach with friends in August, peak time, we found ourselves having no trouble finding parking, as some have. However, this may have something to do with the fact that we arrived just at opening time.

    We also had no problems getting wristbands, due to pre-booking. The entire party having wristbands, we found it greater value for money than buying separate tickets, as having purchased a wristband, it is then possible to spend the entire day in the park, going on rides ...

    blackpool is our favourite place to go and we love the pleasure beach even more. we buy our tickets online before we go and the waiting time was very short. i visit with my husband and three children 13,9,4 and they love major rides kiddies rides and the family rides. me and my daughter enjoy the likes of pepsi max the big one, infusion, bling and the irn bru. my sons like beaver creak and the gentle family rides. my husband and daughter ride the tango ice blast about six times every time ...

    complete waste of money, paid £80.00 for 2 adults & 1 child queued for almost 1 hour to buy wristbands then another 10 mins to get through security
    ,
    average queues for rides was 30 mins so only got on 5 rides (cost approx £16.00 per ride) food was expensive, 3xchips 2xcoke £10.10, drinks, 1 pint of lager & 1 gin & tonic £8.35.

    if you go to blackpool you have no option to take kids to the pleasure beach as this is the main attraction, however it is a big rip off.better o ...

    Blackpool Pleasure Beach is a truly spectacular theme park, and is well worth a visit. The only criticism that can be given is that some rides due to lack of money are closed for the 2009 season, these rides include the rollercoaster, space invader 2, gold mine, and nohas ark. The park is relatively small consisting of 40 acres, but is packed full of an extremely large variety of rides from traditional wooden rollercoasters, to the spectacle that is Infusion, the parks 5 looping rollercoaster. T ...

    Having paid eighty pounds in advance for 4 children, we were very disappointed to be asked for another five pounds for us as parents to accompany our children into Blackpool Pleasure Beach. Wont be going back any time soon.

    Blackpool Pleasure Beach is the best theme park in england and you do not need to wait hours to go on a ride, you fit in more rides in one hour then you do in alton towers.

    i thought that the Blackpool pleasure beach was so good because you dont have to queue long to get in and for the rides, its not very expensive and its not very spread out so you dont have to spend most of your time getting to another ride. i loved it and i would recommend it to anyone !!!

    I took my family with ages ranging from 4 to 59 (7 of us) to Blackpool Pleasure Beach recently and although we were a bit miffed at having to pay £5.00 each for those of us not wanting to go on the rides, I was pleasantly surprised with 1)the cleanliness and 2) the helpfulness of the staff. My daughter is in a wheelchair and the staff were very helpful and accommodating, allowing us to jump the queues and helping us on to the rides. My daughter was on first name terms with most of the staf ...

    I love the Pleasure Beach, which is now better than when I was a kid as you can buy a wristband and go on as many rides as you want. This means that you really have to make it an all-day thing to get your money's worth, but that is fine with me as I now live away and make a day at the Pleasure Beach part of visits "back home".
    They introduced a charge to go into the park this year (even if you don't want to go on rides), which is unpopular with some but AFAIK is in line with what other theme pa ...

    Absoloutely fantastic! It is great value for money. I prefer it to altom towers and all the other theme parks. I went to Alton Towers earlier this year and the queues were so long that I paid all the money and onlly went on a few rides. Blackpool also has the atmosphere like the beach, candyfloss, being able to buy candyfloss. I would reccomend Blackpool Pleasure Beach to everyone because it is fun, great value for money and the kids love it!

    Yes it's tacky, but it a wierdly endearing way and the rides are SUPERB. The food appeared fine and I went to a noodle bar, which was terrible. So...don't go to the noodle bar.
    I went in the height of summer, and whereas other theme parks would have hours of queues (4 hours for Alton Tower's Nemesis in the summer) my friend and I waited 5 minutes for the Big One. 4 hours vs. 5 mins? Hmm....
    Parking was easy to find, the theming i felt was great, the atmosphere was relaxed, and it was pretty cle ...
