Latest News

Hot Ice Returns For 2021

In times like the Jordan Banks tragedy, Blackpool most certainly pulls together. The real sense of community never fails to come to the forefront and heartfelt gestures such as landmarks like The Blackpool Tower and Central Pier lighting up red for the little lad that was a Liverpool fan do not go unnoticed and are very much appreciated by many people. Jordan was a remarkable young man who was no stranger to kind gestures and raising money for charity and following the news about what happened over £60,000 has now been raised on GoFundMe in his memory to support his family. 

Henry James is another young boy with a big heart, who cycled from Lytham to St Annes to Blackpool raising funds for the RNLI and is pictured above stopping and saying hello to our Welcome To Blackpool sign. You can find out how to donate to the "Leg It For Lytham" campaign here

Many of you won't have failed to have noticed the widespread coverage of the £1.1 million restoration of The Blackpool Tower Ballroom, with Strictly's Karen Hauer covering it for BBC One's The One Show and just last night ITV Granada's Paul Crone paint brush in hand at the ornate ceiling threatening to paint a mustache on one of the angelic ladies! As the finishing - shall we say - Touches are being applied to the Ballroom you'll no doubt have also done or are still doing your own preparations needed to ensure things run like clockwork from Monday.   

This really is the last ever Blackpool Hospitality Update as next Thursday Weekly Goings-On returns. However, this time it comes back without our popular PDF Events Printout. With little over 72 hours before remaining accommodation opens their doors, please don't leave yourself and your Guests not knowing what's on in one swoop. It's decision time for hoteliers: go for GOLD or commit to TRIPLE C and the PDF Events Printout will wing its way to your inbox week in, week out on a complimentary basis as part of just one of an ever-growing list of benefits of being part of our schemes. There is also the opportunity to subscribe to the Printout alone for the equivalent of less than £1 a week for the remainder of 2021.  

Weigh up your options and ask any questions because I'm here to make your life easier on all fronts. Make this May your marker for working closer with Little Touches and marvel at what comes your way.
