Merlin to reopen Blackpool Tower in September
BY Tom Walker
Blackpool Tower is to fully reopen on 1 September following a 10-month redevelopment scheme.
The attraction is owned by Blackpool Council and will be operated by Merlin Entertainments.
The work on the tower is part of the council's £250m regeneration programme for the city and includes a number of new attractions - including the Blackpool Tower Eye, a 4D cinema and the Blackpool Tower Dungeon.
In all, Merlin will operate eight attractions at the site - the highest concentration of Merlin attractions anywhere in the world.
