Three things to do on a weekend in Blackpool
1. Meet the animals
Blackpool Zoo is a great spot for animal lovers big and small, and is home to indoor and outdoor play areas and many a dinosaur! In Fleetwood, you’ll find the locally loved Farmer Parrs Animal World, where you can get involved in pony grooming, lamb feeding, chick handling and more!
2. Visit the attractions
There’s so much to see in Blackpool! Stroll along the promenade to see the famous Blackpool Tower, take in its iconic piers, or even spend a few hours enjoying the rides at Blackpool Pleasure Beach. Rumbling tummies will find plenty of traditional fish and chips on offer, as well as plenty of sticks of rock!
3. Relax in Lytham St Annes
Blackpool’s quieter neighbour, Lytham St Annes has its own beach and pier, as well as plenty of independent shops, cafes and pubs. You’ll also find adventure golf, a pitch and putt, and some lovely golf clubs in the area.
