Thousand of people watched as Blackpool illuminations were switched on tonight. Designer Laurence Llewelyn-Bowen pulled the lever following a star-studded party at Blackpool Tower Ballroom, switching on the famous lights along the promenade and prompting a huge fireworks display.
Following a countdown, the lights went on at 9.15pm - and this year they will remain on until January. An estimated ten thousand people lined the promenade when the much-loved resort was illuminated.
The switch-on party featured performances from Tom Grennan, Mae Muller, Blue, Fuse ODG, and Nina Nesbitt in Blackpool Tower Ballroom for 2,000 ticketed guests, LancsLive reported.
