Description
Dating back to 1894, The Blackpool Tower Ballroom is a world of elegant charm, beauty and stunning architecture. Glide across the unique sprung dancefloor of the Ballroom to the sound of the iconic Wurlitzer organ, which draws dance fans from across the world. Dance under ornately decorated ceilings and dazzling chandeliers for a magical experience like no other.
Enjoy the ambience from your Afternoon Tea table or spectate from the balconies. Be sure to look out for the names of 16 composers around the Ballroom and the inscription above the Ballroom stage, which is a sonnet by Shakespeare. You may also recognise this stunning setting from BBC’s Strictly Come Dancing. It’s where the live special takes place every year!
Did You Know? The Ballroom once had strict rules including dancing was not permitted on Sundays and “Gentlemen may not dance unless with a lady”.
