For over two centuries, the Lancashire seaside town of Blackpool has been a popular destination for visitors. The arrival of the railways in 1846 brought a surge of people to the town, which quickly grew into a bustling metropolis. Blackpool's attractions include its famous Illuminations, Golden Mile, three piers, Pleasure Beach, iconic Tower, ballroom, Grand Theatre, and Winter Gardens. The town has a rich history, with frequent visits from royalty and celebrities. Benefactors contributed to the establishment of the Edwardian baroque-style building in Queen Street in 1908, which houses the Grundy Art Gallery and the Central Library. The historic tram system has also received significant investment, enhancing its appeal. Recently, the Comedy Carpet, one of the largest pieces of public art ever commissioned in the UK, was laid out in the space outside the Tower, showcasing Blackpool's constant reinvention. Celebrating Blackpool chronicles the proud heritage of this town, its significant moments, and what draws so many to it today. Illustrated throughout, this fascinating book offers a marvellous and refreshingly positive insight into Blackpool's rich heritage, its special events, and important moments. It will be a valuable contribution to the town's history and provide a source of many memories for those who have known it well over the years.
