Reminiscing over summers in Blackpool - 26 scenes which capture your favourite childhood memories of living by the sea

We asked you to share your favourite childhood memories of living in Blackpool during the summer – and you responded in your hundreds.

These photos capture some of those precious memories – the special times with friends and family, the places, the things you did and people you remember. They are the essence of what Blackpool is all about and celebrate decades of our fabulous resort. Graham Nadin summed it up nicely: “Blackpool is just one living holiday here. You work then go have fun on your door step - awesome town!”
