Blackpool Transport buses now have contactless payment on them, so it's easy to board and tap your card for the journey you want to make.
Blackpool Transport offer a range of tickets giving great value for money on all Blackpool Transport Buses and Trams. There is no need to buy a ticket for the tram and the bus individually when this range of tickets can be used on both. You can buy most travel tickets on board the bus or tram, from PayPoint outlets, or call into the Customer Centre on Market Street Blackpool where the team will be happy to help.
There’s a ticket to suit everyone. Travelling for the weekend? Then choose a 3-day ticket. Travelling all week? Then the 7-day ticket is the best value for you. If you are a regular user of the services, then grab a 30-day pass - no need to worry about renewing tickets or finding change for the whole month!
