Alderman William George Bean founded Pleasure Beach, Blackpool in 1896 and bought the forty two acre site on which the Pleasure Beach now stands. He wanted an American Style Amusement Park, the fundamental principle of which is to make adults feel like children again.






Rides include the "The Pepsi Max Big One" which is the largest roller coaster in the theme park and one the largest in Britain and the still popular Sir Hiram Maxim Flying Machines, were introduced to the area.

The First World War curtailed further development of the site until 1921. And the Second World War once again put a temporary halt to the progress.





Pleasure Beach, Blackpool has been consistently profitable and these profits have been re-invested in new rides and the development and upgrading of the Park. In 1990 the exterior of the grounds were re-designed and a brand new Edwardian style cosmopolitan shopping complex created.

2004 saw the arrival of yet another brand new white knuckle ride the £2m Bling and a further £5 million investment in the park with re-theming and refurbishment.
