The Hole in Wand Blackpool is celebrating a magical milestone after being awarded the prestigious VisitEngland Gold Accolade, recognising the attraction for delivering an exceptional, industry-leading customer experience.
The award was officially presented during the VisitEngland Visitor Attraction Accolades ceremony held at the British Motor Museum in Warwickshire on Tuesday.
The Gold Accolade is awarded exclusively to top performing attractions across the country that consistently go above and beyond to create memorable and high-quality experiences for their guests.
Situated on Blackpool’s iconic Promenade just steps away from The Blackpool Tower, The Hole In Wand was one of only two attractions in the whole of Lancashire to achieve the coveted Gold standard this year, flying the flag for Blackpool and the wider region.
Since opening its doors, the 9-hole wizard-themed adventure golf course has captivated families, tourists, and magic enthusiasts alike. Guests embark on an interactive quest featuring bubbling cauldrons, ancient castles, and mythical creatures, culminating in every player receiving a signature magical potion drink tailored to their final scorecard.
