Our ‘Tower of Love’ pavilion on the Tower Festival Headland, close to North Pier and below Blackpool Tower, was the first building to be built on the Golden Mile for a great many years. It provides a focal point for visitors; a restaurant and local tourist information office at promenade level, with registry offices and ceremony hall above.

A rare thing – a place for civic weddings that is celebratory rather than bureaucratic. They have also sought to capture the spirit of Blackpool without being patronising or cliched. In both they have succeeded, and by offering various views – of tower, horizon, front and streets – as you progress through the building, they help you appreciate what is good about the town.
