BGT winner Harry Moulding to return to Pleasure Beach Resort this half term for special show
Magician Harry Moulding is returning to Blackpool’s Pleasure Beach Resort this February – the very place where he performed the trick that propelled him to victory on Britain’s Got Talent.
Harry, who was crowned winner of the hit ITV show last year, will headline Blackpool’s February Festival of Circus and Magic during half term week, with a special one-off performance at Pleasure Beach Resort.
Fans will remember that Harry delivered his first audition while riding the Big One rollercoaster, in a moment that has already gone down in Britain’s Got Talent history.
Dubbed “the world’s fastest mind-reading trick”, Harry predicted random choices made by the judges while hurtling down the Big One’s 235 foot drop. The stunt earned him a place in the semi-final before he was ultimately crowned the show’s winner and went on to perform at the Royal Variety Performance.
Now Harry is back where it all began to perform Harry Moulding and Guests at Pleasure Beach’s Paradise Room on Friday February 20.
Harry’s guests will be Jamie Leahey, one of the UK’s newest and brightest ventriloquists acts who viewers may recognise from CBBC’s Saturday Mash-Up and the Britain’s Got Talent final; and comedy juggler Tommy J.
Tickets cost £12.50 and are available here.
Tweedy the Clown
As well as Harry Moulding and Guests, Pleasure Beach will play host to Tweedy the clown’s critically acclaimed ‘Massive Solo Show’, which sees his props, limbs and even AI turn against him with hilarious consequences.
The much-loved star of Giffords Circus, Tweedy has amassed a cult following that includes celebrity fans, and has performed at prestigious venues including Madison Square Gardens. He was awarded the British Empire Medal in 2023 – the first time a medal has been given out for work in the circus.
Tweedy’s Massive Solo Show takes place at Pleasure Beach’s Globe theatre one day earlier, on Thursday 19th February, and costs just £10. Tickets are available here.
“Full-circle moment”
Amanda Thompson OBE, CEO of Pleasure Beach Resort, said: “Harry Moulding’s return to Pleasure Beach Resort marks a true full-circle moment, bringing one of Britain’s most talked about magicians back to the place where his winning journey began. We can’t wait.
“Tweedy is considered one of the best in the business and families will love his slapstick and physical comedy. These shows are further proof that Blackpool is open for business, and what a way to kick off the season.”
