@@Kevin-lz8xh They’re clearly making steps to improve

Its not just the park that they have made improvements to, they have also spent a lot of money on doing a new adventure golf course and a big wheel outside the park which enhances the whole area and provides something for non riders and for people who dont want to enter the park or dont have the time. I agree with you that they are making a big effort with the limited budget that they have, i can see this park getting more permanent rides in the future and if they do get a new rollercoaster it will put them on the map and maybe people will want to visit both Southport and Blackpool together.

This park has come on a long long way from the state it was left in when Norman Wallis took it over. Plus for a while there was an issues of how long he would have the land for. I do remember the first year it re opened and it was just a massive fun fair on some gravel I think that random section by the see front needs some major work as it does do the park justice. Beach goes will just see a travelling fun fair

I’m hopeful when the new coaster opens they completely overhaul that area because it doesn’t look great.

Great vlog and great to see the park looking good. I don't live far but I haven't been in a while myself. It would be good to see it thrive and hopefully some smart additions in coming years could help. Becca made a great point about coming from Scotland and if so you wouldn't continue past Blackpool to visit Southport, I always felt this must have been an issue for them and that by 2006, it was just too much like a mini BPB anyway for me, it needed its own identity. They had a mini shot tower, old BPB rides, even Blackpool's River Caves soundtrack was added to Southport's etc. Hopefully it can kick on and be a destination people may want to seek out. Southport council sorting the Pier out as well would be a good thing but that is a bit off topic.

It had a poor first drop, was then snail pace slow through the turnaround...but then picked up and had some decent little drops towards the end. What I liked about it though was in-car re-rides and they used to put the last carriage of the train on backwards! 😀👍

We were tempted to visit the park on our last visit but like you we only had a couple of hours spare and the wristband would be a struggle to get value for money from as with the exception of big coasters we ride things only once, we might get 27.50 worth of rides but would be under pressure to feel we had done so. That big coaster arrives and I think there would be no doubt it felt value. Liked that there was a lot more green space in the park than I recall previously and really liking your extra coverage recently.

£27.50 is too much for one person especially whilst there’s rides out of action. A new permanent coaster is desperately needed I think. It’s been a challenge transitioning to 4 uploads a week but I’m a lot more organised with my upload plans from mid September onwards 😅

I’m going in 2 weeks I’m so excited 🎉😊

We only live a few miles away and went in June on an emergency services staff discount day (care of my wife’s job). They’ve really upped the park’s look this year and smartened it up. It used to be a bit tatty but this year, wow, they’ve made some real improvements and it’s looking smart. The free walk on was a bit of a surprise however. The 2 new rides were under test when we went and that part of the park was cordoned off, but for what we paid for the discounted tickets we weren’t too bothered. The staff were really friendly at the park and it’s worth a day out. They’ve been having themed characters over the summer, “Captain Jack Sparrow” was there when we were. Shame the Rocket was closed, it’s pretty good. You got off light on the log flume as my lad and I got soaked 💦 There is talk locally about there being plans for a large coaster along the sea front… should be good and the local authority, Sefton MBC, seem onboard.

Love Blackpool pleasure beach still go on all the rides went on the big one when it first opened way back in 1994, also the revolution in 1979 got a certificate for riding it. I wish they would bring back free entry as my wife is disabled, so can't see me go on the rides.

Pleasure land is what I describe as a shadow of its former self. Like Morecambe it was the poor relative of nearby Blackpool and suffered accordingly. When you destroy the wooden coaster and rip the place apart and replace things with essentially touring portable rides it's never going to be as attractive as nearby alternative destinations. It was great in the 70s and 80s but was let down by lack of investment.

BPB haven’t operated it since 2006 so can’t really be blamed for the current status, the new owner/operator have had a long time to do what they need to do. I think it’s clear to see there’s some improvement now.

Looking at the views of the park when you were on the Booster, there is a lot of scope to develop and add new rides to the park. They just need a major rollercoaster to attract the crowds in and it will go from strength to strength.
