It promises to be a fantastic year and bring lots of smiles to faces. The makeover means the Tower will be lit up in a choice of 21 colours and Tower chiefs believe it promises to be one of the best-ever years! Kenny Mew, general manager at The Blackpool Tower, said: “This is the first time in more than two years that we’ve been able to have lights on all four sides of the Tower and, even more impressive, the first time in 10 years that every single light node has been replaced. Every single one of the iconic landmark’s 5,752 light bulbs have been replaced for the first time in 10-years – a mammoth task which has seen its expert team clocking up more than 4,000 abseiling hours to complete. ![]() ![]() Friday 3rd September 2020 Picture Credit Charlotte Graham Pictures Shows: STRICTLY EMBARGOED UNTIL 00:01 7TH SEPTEMBER 2020 Lights, Tower, Action!
