Blackpool confirm pre-season camp following start of preparations for the 2026/27 League One campaign

Blackpool are back in Spain this summer.

It has been announced that Blackpool are returning to Spain for a pre-season camp.

The Seasiders started their summer preparations at Squires Gate on Thursday and Friday - with a heatwave hitting the United Kingdom.

Ian Evatt’s squad will now head abroad for further hot weather training, and will be in camp between June 28 and July 4.

Their return to England comes the weekend before the first friendly of the summer, which is away to AFC Fylde at Mill Farm on July 11.
