Hi All It is my stag do in October so I am not so worried about the choice of bars/clubs that will be open because of the illuminations. What I am worried about is dress code as I have never been out around Blackpool before and whilst researching some people say the dress code is very smart (no jeans/trainers) to anything goes (fancy dress etc. Also I have read about VIP cards, how can I go about getting one of these and are they worth the money? Any advice would be greatly appreciated. Thanks Matt

Can any of youse eggheads give me any indication of how easy/difficult it'll be for me to find pleasant but inexpensive guesthouse accommodation (with ensuite) in August during the Rebellion Punkfest (7/8/9/10th)? What mistakes shouldn't I make? I'm guessing that I may be emerging from the Winter Gardens at around 2.00 a.m. each night so public transport'll be thin on the ground and also yer average guesthouse won't relish punters coming back in at such a late hour, will they? I'll need to be within walking distance of the Winter Gardens, won't I? Which probably means the most popular hotels will be in that area and they'll all be booked up. And do the locals beat the crap out of punks who wander around late at night? Or is every night party night in Blackpool in August, with jolly persons filling the streets till 4.00 a.m., exchanging good-natured banter and witty repartee as opposed to kicking people's heads in?

Is the Clifton Hotel on Talbot Square open or not? Hotel booking companies are still advertising it and some state that it has been closed for 2 years or more. No wonder business in Blackpool is so bad when nobody knows which hotels are open !!!

Greetings Is the fun fair on the boardwalk (rides, stalls, carnival lighting etc) at Blackpool in action all year round or only during the warmer months? Many thanks for your help Fatbot

Hiya, i was just wondering 1) if you could give me an idea of things that 16-17 year olds can do on a holiday in Blackpool. And also... 2) What children age 11-13 can do on holiday in blackpool. I was just thinking of things that there are other than the waxworks and the pleasure beach. Especially for the 16-17 year olds. Thanx.

Hoping someone can tell me where is a decent place to stay and some of the good pubs in Blackpool. I know I'm not going during the best of times weather-wise, but nevertheless I will be there in Early November. I need a place to stay. Doesn't necessarily need to be the Ritz Carlton, but then again I don't want the Bates Motel either. Something decent for a modest price. I'm looking for something near the Empress Ballroom-somewhere within reasonable staggering distance because I will be drinking heavily celebrating the reunion of the Verve, which is why I will be in Blackpool in the first place. Also, I wouldn't mind knowing what the best combination of reliability and economy is for getting from Blackpool to Liverpool Airport, as I have a flight to Latvia the next day. Whoever can help out the best wins an ice cold pint of your choice, personally paid for by me. :) Thanks, Happyhourkid

A friend recommended a hotel in Blackpool at which they stayed at a long while ago for which they mentioned the name. For the life of me I cannot remember what it was called - old age!
