Limo Hire Blackpool
Nowhere in the North West is better suited to a stretch limo than Blackpool. It’s loud, bright and happy to be over the top, and a pink Hummer pulling up on the Promenade fits right in. We do limo hire across Blackpool and the Fylde coast, from South Shore and Squires Gate up through North Shore and Bispham to Cleveleys, plus inland to Poulton-le-Fylde and Lytham St Annes.
Most of our Blackpool bookings fall into one of three groups: hen and stag weekends, couples getting married at one of the resort’s grand old venues, and people who just want to see the Illuminations from the back of a limo with a drink in hand. We handle all three.
Seeing the Illuminations by Limo
The lights run for around six miles along the seafront, and crawling along them in a stretch limo with the music on is a lot more fun than queuing in traffic in your own car. The season starts with the switch-on at the beginning of September and runs to around the start of November. Part of the display then stays lit into early January for the festive programme. Autumn Saturdays are when we’re asked most, so book early if you have a date in mind.
Illuminations tip: the full route runs from Starr Gate in the south to Red Bank Road at Bispham. Tell us where you’re staying and we’ll plan the drive so you finish near your hotel or your first bar.
Hen Dos and Stag Weekends
Blackpool has been the North West’s hen and stag capital for decades, and the reason is simple: everything you need is packed into a short stretch of town. The busiest bars and clubs are around Dickson Road at North Shore and Queen Street in the centre. Funny Girls, the drag cabaret bar on Dickson Road, is a hen party favourite and a great place to be dropped off in style.
A typical booking looks like this: we collect the group from home in Merseyside, Lancashire or Greater Manchester, with drinks and your playlist on board. We drop you at your accommodation or straight into the first venue, and we can come back for the journey home if you’re not staying over. For details, see hen party limo hire and stag do limos.
Wedding Limos on the Fylde Coast
Blackpool weddings are rarely low-key, and the venues explain why. The Tower Ballroom, the Winter Gardens and the Grand Theatre are all licensed for ceremonies. The Imperial Hotel, the grand Victorian hotel on North Promenade, is another favourite. Inland, Ribby Hall Village near Wrea Green gives you the countryside instead of the seafront.
A white limo for the bridal party and something louder for the groomsmen is a popular combination here. Our wedding limo page has more on ribbons, timings and getting everyone where they need to be.
Proms in Blackpool
School proms on the Fylde coast are a big occasion, held everywhere from the seafront hotels to Bloomfield Road. If you’re arranging a limo for a group of friends, we can pick up from several addresses and get everyone there together for the photos. See prom limos.
Getting You There
From our base in St Helens, Blackpool is about 41 miles, roughly an hour up the M6 and along the M55. Plenty of our Blackpool customers actually set off from Merseyside, Wigan or Warrington, so collecting you from home and taking you to the coast is often the simplest option. If you’re starting in Blackpool itself, that’s no problem either.
Can we just book a drive along the lights?
Yes. A tour of the Illuminations on its own is a popular booking, especially for birthdays and family nights out.
Which limo is best for a big hen party?
The pink Hummer is the favourite, and it carries a much bigger group than a standard stretch. If there are more of you than that, a party bus keeps everyone together.
