Your tour
A two-day break to enjoy the UK’s most popular seaside resort with free time to enjoy the famous Blackpool illuminations. With miles of sparkling lights, it's easy to see why this has been a firm favourite for years, attracting thousands of visitors from across the globe! Along with a visit to Manchester with time to enjoy the Christmas Markets.
What's Included
The Blackpool Illuminations - Between September and January, Blackpool shines brighter than any summer's day. The UK’s most popular seaside resort holds its annual free light show – and it’s the best time of year to visit!
Blackpool - With its many visitor attractions, traditional seaside charm and award-winning beaches, it’s not surprising that so many holidaymakers visit this popular resort. Take a stroll along the promenade and discover the town’s visitor attractions, including the amusements, museums and the three Victorian piers
Manchester Christmas Markets - With markets spread across the city, a trip to Manchester is sure to get you feeling festive! As one of the largest Christmas Markets in the UK, it not only offers a huge variety of handmade, unique gifts, locally produced food and warming hot drinks, but also boasts an ice rink and light trails alongside the iconic Manchester Giant Santa. You’ll love wandering the rows of stalls and soaking up the festive atmosphere!
Norbreck Castle Hotel & Spa - Tucked away on the far North of Blackpool's seafront, the Norbreck is quietly located, but has easy access to the buzz of the town centre. One of the largest Brittania-run hotels (and most distinct), it has a well-equipped health club – and unrivalled entertainment.

Blackpool Illuminations
Looking for something that’s sure to light up your life? Our coach trips to Blackpool Illuminations are the perfect way to do that!
Starting out with 10,000 lights back in 1912, the annual lighting extravaganza now sees over one million light bulbs dazzle along the seafront for almost six miles. In 2026 the Illuminations will see a trio of smoke-breathing dragons as its new centrepiece by the Blackpool Tower and there will be a range of new open-air art installations to experience.
With different designs and themes added each year, a Blackpool Illuminations break always gives you something new and exciting to discover. It’s one of the UK’s biggest attractions and the largest free light show in the world, attracting millions of visitors each year.

You can find it on the seafront on Queen’s Promenade, overlooking the Irish Sea from the quieter North Shore and within easy reach of the town’s exciting attractions.
Mealtimes in the restaurant are always enjoyable, while the bar is a lovely spot for a relaxing drink.
You've got a comfortable lounge that gives you somewhere to sit back and unwind, and if you love a Blackpool break this could be the hotel for you!

About Blackpool
Blackpool is one of Britain’s best-loved seaside towns, and travelling by coach means you can skip the stress of driving or navigating trains. Sit back, relax, and arrive ready to enjoy the action.
The town has kept its classic seaside feel, with long sandy shores and the lively Golden Mile, while adding plenty more attractions in recent years. From arcades to shows, it’s familiar and full of choice and entertainment.
Whether you’re a regular visitor or it’s your first trip, Blackpool is never short of things to do. Our breaks are built for ease – good value, well-planned, and perfect for those who just want everything sorted before they set off
The only surviving first-generation tramway in the UK provides a unique trip around town. A number of the original fleet are still available to ride, and there are illuminated trams running from September to January - the best seat to see the annual light show! They now feature 1 million bulbs and more than 500 designs and features!
There is so much to do and see in Blackpool, whether you’re 5 or 50! There are so many attractions – including the iconic Blackpool Tower, the town’s landmark which was modelled after the Eiffel Tower in Paris.
