It is the biggest centre in the United States for conventions. It has the best entertainment, the best restaurants and the best shopping. It is one of the world's most successful holiday destinations. Not to mention all those weddings. It grows at 6,000 people a month and has no State income tax.
People come here because it's good fun.
Great entertainment, excellent choice of restaurants and hotels. There's also more to see than you might think. Las Vegas is just a few hours' drive from the Grand Canyon, one of the world's most popular tourist destinations itself, but the city's location in the beautiful but barren Mojave Desert also keeps visitors in town. Blackpool may not have the same kind of geographical predisposition to captivate and isolate, but its history of providing entertainment to so many people is a firm foundation for future plans. Families are at the heart of this.
