Nature

Blackpool has a host of parks each with its own events programme designed to get everyone closer to nature – whether it’s plants or animals.

Encounter education and conservation on a walk with the animals at Blackpool Zoo, where feeding times accompanied by fascinating talks on a whole host of animals – from sea lions to big cats and giraffes to penguins.

Enjoy the leafy surroundings of Blackpool’s Stanley Park with musical accompaniment with a whole series of FREE concerts in the bandstand from June to September; from classical to jazz and musicals to modern favourites, performed by the very best local talent.

From nature walks to children’s activities and conservation action days, there’s a whole calendar of events from Easter to October in the resort’s parks.

National Whale and Dolphin Week and National Marine Week are always celebrated at the Solaris Centre on the promenade opposite the Mirrorball, with events and organised sighting opportunities as well as art exhibitions.
