 
Blackpool illumination limo tour
Blackpool Illuminations - it's the sounds our
lights generate that sum up their sheer Autumn magic. The gasps of
delight from the youngsters gazing at their playtime heroes as they view
the giant clifftop tableaux for the first time.
The whispered laughter of courting couples on a
late night back-lit Promenade stroll. Or the eagerly-shared memories of
older visitors sitting in a seafront shelter reminiscing about that
charabanc trip through the Illuminations all those years ago.
Yes, those are the sounds of crowds having fun in
Blackpool, a resort still buzzing with life long after the so called
rivals have pulled down their winter shutters. When it comes to shining
examples, Blackpool is way out in front. Holidaymakers have tripped the
Lights fantastic since 1879 when just electric arc lamps bathed the
Promenade in what was described as artificial sunshine.
The basic idea remains the same but, it has to be said, the style,
scale and sheer professionalism of today's version have little in
keeping with that first electric lighting experiment. Traditional lamps
are still used alongside the newest technology such as fibre-optics and
low-voltage neon.
Blackpool's most electrifying night is when the
Lights are switched on and the ceremony, a real razamatazz showcase, has
been performed by all the biggest names. Stars of Coronation Street,
maestro of the musicals Sir Andrew Lloyd Webber, even Kermit the Frog
have had the crowds cheering as fireworks hit the sky and the eye
dazzling display gets under way.
Or why not enjoy a grandstand seat
aboard a cleverly disguised tram - such as a Wild West Train or Space
Rocket - where YOU actually become part of the display as you travel
along the Promenade. Blackpool's end-of-season electrical extravaganza
gives you the perfect excuse for taking a late break by the sea.
