Experience the UK’s tallest rollercoaster like never before with the Blackpool Pleasure Beach Walk The Big One XL experience.
Blackpool Pleasure Beach is giving guests the chance to experience the UK’s tallest rollercoaster like never before.
Instead of taking the initial walk up the insane 235ft lift hill the XL package is set to go one set further as extra areas that the public haven’t been to before will be unlocked.
Walk the Big One XL takes participants on a guided tour of the Big One which covers many ups and downs of the famous 235ft tall ride and will take them to places the public will have never been before.
As well as climbing the 420 steps to the top of The Big One, participants will also get the chance to explore the ride’s maintenance area and get a better insight into how it works. They will also have the chance to climb up two exciting new points on the ride where they will experience unique views of the ride, Blackpool Pleasure Beach, and the stunning seafront.
Walk The Big One XL will be run by members of Blackpool Pleasure Beach’s ride operations team who will guide guests through the experience, share fascinating facts and stories about the ride, and also share a few interesting tales about their time working with the famous ride.
Speaking about Walk The Big One XL, Andy Hygate, Blackpool Pleasure Beach’s Director of Operations comments:
“The original Walk The Big One and Walk The Woodie events have been hugely successful so we wanted to develop a new experience to build on these and offer something completely new.
“Walk The Big One XL will take our guests to parts of the ride they will never have been to before, and experience unique views of the ride and surrounding areas.
Having tried the walk myself, I can definitely say that it’s something that all fans of Blackpool Pleasure Beach will love to take part in.”
The experience is priced at £150 per person which is a little pricey but will consist of a 90 minute VIP style experience.
For me, I’ll be praying for a break down on the lift hill so I can walk down from the top for free!
Current dates available for Walk The Big One XL are Friday 29th April, Friday 6th May and Friday 17th June. More dates may be added if demand is high for the event.
