by Visit Blackpool
Blackpool Football Club is delighted to announce VisitBlackpool as back-of-shirt sponsors on the home kit for the 24/25 season.
VisitBlackpool is responsible for promoting the UK’s most popular holiday destination to a national and international audience.
As the tourism arm of Blackpool Council, it works closely with local partners and stakeholders to showcase the best that Blackpool has to offer. Over the past few years, it has helped grow annual visitor numbers to more than 20 million with large-scale events and initiatives such as the extension of the annual Illuminations season from two to four months and the introduction of the hugely popular Christmas By The Sea event, which spans seven weeks during November and December.
A VisitBlackpool spokesperson said:
“We are delighted to continue our relationship with Blackpool Football Club for the coming season.
“There is a clear and obvious benefit in having the VisitBlackpool logo on the iconic tangerine shirt as part of our destination marketing activity, particularly when TV exposure this season will see the screening of a record number of games and we will reach audiences throughout the UK.”
Martin Booker, Blackpool FC’s Commercial Manager, added:
“We are delighted that VisitBlackpool are back on board with us as one of our kit sponsors this season. A key advocate for attracting visitors and pushing Blackpool as a leading UK resort they have remained a key player on our partnership programme for the last five seasons. The VisitBlackpool logo will be proudly displayed on the back of the home shirts in the famous tangerine and white from tomorrow’s home game against Stockport County.”
