Join VICTA for an action-packed adventure at Blackpool Pleasure Beach!

Blackpool Pleasure Beach is a theme park with lots of incredible rides. Try the Big One, a 235ft stomach-dropping rollercoaster, hover over water and flip upside down on Infusion and Revolution, or have a go on the UK’s oldest rollercoaster, the Big Dipper. As well as thrilling rollercoasters, you can also expect calmer rides, exciting attractions, lots of fairground games, and plenty of laughs.

This activity is particularly suited to those who are interested in high octane rides and meeting other like-minded individuals.

Lunch at Big Pizza Kitchen will be included.

The rides are calling – are you in? Spaces are limited, so sign up now as this is one trip you don’t want to miss!

N.B. Blackpool Pleasure Beach is a physical activity where it is likely that you may be required to stand for a prolonged period.
