Getting there
The Winter Gardens complex is perfectly situated at the heart of the North West of England, in Britain’s most famous seaside resort, Blackpool.
By road
There are direct motorway links (M55/M6/M62) and express coach services connecting many UK towns and cities. There are many public car parks available once you reach Blackpool.
By rail
Blackpool benefits from an excellent rail network linking Scotland, Yorkshire, the Midlands and the south-east. The Blackpool North Station is the closest and just a 10-minute walk or short taxi ride away.
By air
With daily flights from London-Stansted , Belfast, Dublin and other European cities to the newly developed Blackpool Airport, the Winter Gardens is more accessible than ever before. Also, Manchester International Airport is only an hour’s drive away.
By sea
Ferry ports at Liverpool, Holyhead and Heysham offer fast Sea Cat ferry crossings from Ireland enabling visitors to arrive in Blackpool just one hour after disembarking.
