Blackpool Pleasure Beach has revealed its opening dates and times for the 2027 season, with Twilight Thrills, extended evening riding and fireworks all featuring on the calendar.
Visitors planning a trip to Blackpool Pleasure Beach next year can now start looking ahead, with the resort publishing dates for the new season on its official opening times and prices page.
The calendar includes February half-term opening dates, the return of the main season in March and special events that will give guests the chance to enjoy the park beyond its usual daytime hours.
One of the highlights is Twilight Thrills, which is scheduled to return in 2027, alongside a fireworks date already listed towards the end of the year.
When Does Blackpool Pleasure Beach Open in 2027?
According to the official calendar, Blackpool Pleasure Beach is scheduled to welcome guests for February half-term from Saturday, 13 February 2027.
The resort has listed opening dates throughout the half-term period, running until Sunday, 21 February. The published times for these dates are 11am to 4pm.
The park is then scheduled to reopen on selected dates in March, ahead of a busier period around Easter.
The first March dates currently listed are Saturday, 6 March and Sunday, 7 March, with further weekend openings throughout the month.
The calendar also includes Friday, 26 March, when the park is scheduled to open from 10am until 6pm.
As with all published opening dates, visitors should check the official calendar before travelling, as operating hours and ride availability can change.
Twilight Thrills Returns for 2027
Twilight Thrills is among the special dates appearing on the 2027 opening calendar.
The event is listed for Saturday, 27 March 2027, when Blackpool Pleasure Beach is scheduled to open from 10am until 9pm.
This gives visitors the opportunity to enjoy a longer day at the park, with the chance to experience its rides and attractions into the evening.
Riding after dark can offer a different experience from visiting during daylight, particularly on the resort’s larger roller coasters, where the lights and atmosphere around the park change as the evening progresses.
The return of Twilight Thrills will be welcome news for thrill-seekers who enjoy making the most of extended opening hours.
Visitors should check the resort’s event information for any additional details about the experience, including which attractions will operate and whether any special entertainment is planned.
Late-Night Riding on the Cards
Extended opening hours are an important part of the Blackpool Pleasure Beach experience, giving guests more time to enjoy the park’s attractions.
The published 2027 calendar already includes dates with later closing times, including the Twilight Thrills date in March.
For enthusiasts, evening visits can be an appealing opportunity to ride some of the park’s best-known attractions after sunset, when the atmosphere around the park is different from a traditional daytime visit.
However, opening hours alone do not guarantee that every ride will operate until the advertised closing time. The resort states that its published closing time indicates when ride queues close, and that rides remain subject to availability on the day.
Anyone planning a visit specifically for late-night riding should check the latest information before setting off.
Late-Night Riding and Fireworks Return in July and August
Some of the biggest dates on the 2027 calendar are the special Late Night Riding & Fireworks events, which combine extended park hours with a fireworks celebration.
Blackpool Pleasure Beach has currently listed the following dates:
- Saturday, 3 July 2027 – 10am to 10pm
- Saturday, 24 July 2027 – 10am to 10pm
- Saturday, 7 August 2027 – 10am to 10pm
- Saturday, 28 August 2027 – 10am to 10pm
These dates give guests the opportunity to spend a full day at the park before enjoying the evening atmosphere and fireworks.
The return of these events will give families and thrill-seekers more reasons to plan a summer visit, particularly those who enjoy experiencing rides after dark.
Further details, including any specific fireworks timings and event arrangements, should be checked with the resort as the season approaches.
More Twilight Thrills Dates Confirmed
The 2027 calendar features several additional Twilight Thrills dates throughout the spring and summer.
The dates currently listed are:
- Saturday, 27 March 2027
- Saturday, 22 May 2027
- Saturday, 31 July 2027
- Saturday, 14 August 2027
- Saturday, 21 August 2027
Each of these dates is scheduled to run from 10am until 9pm.
With multiple dates spread across the season, visitors will have several opportunities to experience the park during extended opening hours rather than being limited to a single event.
Planning a Visit to Blackpool Pleasure Beach in 2027
Anyone looking to visit Blackpool Pleasure Beach next year can now use the published calendar to start planning their trip.
The official website lists individual ticket prices alongside the opening hours for each date, allowing visitors to compare the available options before booking.
