AstaBGay - The Blackpool Gay Directory:

 
It's all here in Blackpool, from the tacky (and don't we all enjoy a bit of tacky now and then?) to the tasteful, with no shortage of Gay owned and Gay-friendly Hotels and Guest Houses with their late-night Bars in which to stay and make new friends. If you're only here on a short break, you may have a problem getting everything in (Whoops!), but you'll have fun trying.

Blackpool's large and excellent Gay Scene caters mainly for fun-loving people. Drink, dance, and sex is very much the order of the day - every day. The Gay Scene here is not dependent on the weather, although the wallpaper is always best in the summer. However, that is not to say there is nothing here for the more reserved kind of person. The bars are much quieter (in all senses) during the day even though they may still have entertainment and cheap drinks on offer. Many of the gay and gay friendly hotels and guest houses have their own comfortable bars where people can relax, make new friends, or watch television at their leisure.
