Showtown

Bringing the first museum to the nation's most famous seaside town.

Arts & Culture
  • Showtown
  • We have been appointed by Blackpool Council to deliver the National Lottery Heritage Fund backed Blackpool Museum Project.

    Named 'Showtown' the museum will celebrate Blackpool as the UK's most popular seaside destination and its role in the development of British popular culture.

    Located in the Sands Building on the Promenade, it will be a hybrid between a museum and visitor attraction, capturing the spirit of the famous seaside town. Visitors will be able to discover more about Blackpool's links with dance, comedy, live variety, illumination, circus and sideshows.

    Working alongside exhibition designers, Casson Mann, our proposals will create a fully-immersive, family-friendly experience for visitors to the museum that reveals the lasting impact the town has had on the nation's sense of fun and entertainment.
