Blackpool Pleasure Beach - Trying Speedy Pass and Riding Old Rollercoasters, Tons of On Ride Footage

Subscribe to see more shows, theme park walk throughs and travel diaries!
In today's video we take you on a tour of the immensely iconic Blackpool Pleasure Beach, opening in 1896 this has been a staple of English seaside holidays for over a century, whilst it's come a long way since it's founding it's still a family owned and operated park.
Featuring a number of rollercoasters as well as dark rides, this park has a unique atmosphere and utilises the limited space it has incredibly well, rollercoasters intertwine with each other and set over multiple levels too it really feels like a full theme park!
We've got some great on ride footage throughout the video from some of the most loved attrations, we've got Icon, the newest rollercoaster in the park, we've got The Big One, currently the tallest rollercoaster in the UK, we've got The Big Dipper and Grand National, 2 of the oldest wooden rollercoasters still in operation today and we've also got Infusion which is the only suspended rollarcoaster to be fully suspended over water! This park has so much to offer! We also have on ride footage from Alice in Wonderland, Ghost Train and Wallace & Gromet.
As it was a Saturday in the height of the British summer, we also utilised their Speedy Pass system, there are 2 levels to this, the first being what is effectively a virtual queue system allowing you to book into a ride and have the app wait for you whilst still being able to do what you want, the second level is a full express pass allowing you to skip all queues. These are price at £25pp and £50pp respectively.
Enjoy!

Love the video ☺️ I’m going this Saturday with my boyfriend and we have booked speedy pass vip tickets. I assume it’s the same booking system but how does the speedy pass work when you have more than 1 person? When you book the ride, does it book it for the both of you?

Thank you for watching! Stuck around for more content! You link your tickets to an account and then create a group, that’ll mean you can click the group to book you both onto the ride together otherwise if you have the top tier one I believe you can just walk up and they scan your ticket as that’s unlimited speedy boarding. (I’d advise screenshot of the ticket as it’s a pain to continually load)
