24 dazzling night scenes from the 90s and 00s which remember Blackpool's streets and landmarks lit up after dark

Blackpool comes alive when lit up at night.

We know it’s famed for its legendary Illuminations but the resort sparkles to life elsewhere when the sun goes down. From the bright and colourful lights of the Golden Mile to the illuminated tower and piers, these photos are a step back in time to the 1990s and early 2000s. They are times you may remember when the Tower was illuminated with the Pepsi logo, hot air balloons at dusk and Blackpool FC’s new stand shining brightly. There are also scenes stepped away from the Golden Mile – people enjoying a night out, dramatic sunsets and Streetlife shelters offering light and warmth at night to people without a place to go.
