Right next to the famous Blackpool Tower. There’s so much to do there it can be hard to get your bearings. Here are a few of our favourite rides/games:

Camel Derby – Instead of Donkey Derby Coral Island has a Camel Derby. This is a great family-friendly thing to play. You each take a seat and pop £1 in your slot. Then the race starts. You have to roll your balls into coloured holes.

Bingo – The family prize bingo is at the far end of Coral Island next to the over 18’s area. You each get your own seat and screen. There is a live Bingo caller but instead of worrying about not only your ticket and your child’s ticket it’s all done pretty much automatically for you. It costs just 30p for one game of 3 cards. Or 60p for 6 cards.

Pirate Flyer Ride – You sit in a pirate ship that moves a bit like a monorail above the amusements. It’s great fun looking down at everyone. They have added some pretend pistols to the ships which the kids will love.

Pirate Quest Ghost Train – The Ghost train is excellent with some really fun elements with doors, strobe lights, wind and plenty of scary things that move. They even have two walls that pretend to fall on you.

Kids Eat Free – It’s worth eating at Coral Island because Kids Eat Free. This deal is available All Day, Every Day, at all of the Coral Island restaurants. You can have one free under 10 kids’ meal per one paid adults’ meal.

Arcade games and 2p slot machines – The main draw to Coral Island is the wide selection of game machines and 2p slot machines. If you play for tickets, you can redeem them in the prize shop later on.

There is also have plenty of grab machines where you can win soft toys and fruit machines. Plus, games where you can go bowling, play basketball, and VR simulator rides. 

• Blackpool’s World-Famous Illuminations

The world-famous Illuminations need little introduction. It is an annual lights festival, founded in 1879 and first switched on 18 September that year, held each autumn in the British seaside resort of Blackpool on the Fylde Coast in Lancashire. 

This year Blackpool’s annual Illuminations display will once again be extended by two months, shining nightly from September 1, 2023 to January 1, 2024. It’s the greatest free lightshow on earth! Enjoy 6 miles of the brightest light displays. They’re on buildings, fairground rides, lamp posts and trams!
