When a team from Canada sets alight the skies above Blackpool for the third round of the World Fireworks Championships, an enhanced tram timetable will again be in place to make sure visitors can make the most of the spectacular show.
On Saturday, October 11, a mainline service will run from every 12 minutes from 6.00 pm, with an additional shuttle service running from every 24 minutes between North Station and Little Bispham for connections to all mainline stops between Starr Gate and Fleetwood.

Jamie Swift, Head of Commercial explained: “Over the first two rounds of the championships, these arrangements have proved popular with customers and helped to keep the town moving as tens of thousands of people flocked to the seafront to watch the fireworks.
“As well as maintaining the link to the national rail system, next weekend these temporary arrangements will again help us to improve capacity on the most popular section of the tramway.”
In addition to the enhanced tram timetable, from 6.30 pm, buses will also be running to their temporary ‘illuminations diversions’ timetable, and further information can be found here
