BLACKPOOL AIR SHOW

8th & 9th August 2026

The skies over the seafront come alive for one spectacular weekend.
Two ways to watch - pick yours.

TWO WAYS TO WATCH THE SKIES

The display sweeps in over the sea, right beside the park.
Catch it free while you ride, or claim the best seat in the resort with lunch at White Tower.

FREE WITH PLEASURE BEACH eTICKET

FROM THE PARK

Watch it while you ride. The display passes over the seafront right above us, so you can look up between coasters - all part of your day.

ALSO ON TODAY:

LIMITED TABLES - BOOK IN ADVANCE TO RESERVE YOURS

WHITE TOWER LUNCH

The best seat in the resort. Reserve a table by White Tower's panoramic windows and watch the Airshow out over the sea - with lunch, comfort, and no craning your neck. You'll also have full access to our rooftop balcony.

AIR SHOW FAQs

Do I need a ticket to see the Air Show at Pleasure Beach Resort?

You can watch it free from the park with a valid eTicket. The display passes over the seafront right beside us. A White Tower lunch table is a separate booking for those who want the best seated view.

Displays run across both the Saturday and Sunday afternoons. Confirmed timings and the aircraft line-up come from the official Blackpool Airshow programme.

Plenty of our rides give brilliant sightlines out over the sea, so keep looking up. It's one of the few places you can ride a coaster and catch an air show at the same time.

Yes, Late Night Riding & Fireworks on the 8th, plus the Summer Festival running all weekend.
