The event in Clevedon Road Claremont was organised by local community group Magic Club in conjunction with Blackpool Council and the hope is that more will follow at other locations around town.
Children from the street, aged from several months to 14 years were joined by their mums and dads for the event restricted tojut residents of that street.
To maintain that limit, door knocking with advance information replaced social media, while no activites were set in advance.
"It was all about enjoying playing for its own sake and we were delighted with how it went,” said Laura White of the Magic Club.
"Play Street enables children to make friends, have fun, and learn and gain independence, all while enjoying the fresh air and freedom of outside play alongside opportunities for families and the wider community to get together.”
