Madame Tussauds got a list of names and Blackpool is in RED, underlined ❤️

13 brand new Taylor Swift wax figures will launch in 13 places across four continents - and Blackpool has made the cut!

Red will take centre stage at Madame Tussauds Blackpool, dressed in the iconic red-to-black embellished playsuit that featured in the first and second leg of The Eras Tour.

You can visit Taylor’s wax figure at the attraction from tomorrow, Friday 25 July.

Welcome to sunny Blackpool, Taylor!

Pleasure Beach Resort has just released this CGI video to show the mammoth scale of its new ride, Aviktas 😲

Set to open next year, the giant spinning pendulum ride swings 120 degrees and will seat 40 riders who face outwards with their legs dangling.

The 138ft gyro ride will be the ‘tallest of its kind’ in the UK.

Who’s up for it?!
