CREATE: The big little town project

Join us during half term as we build cardboard models of Blackpool landmarks together.

The big little town project needs your help to build a model of Blackpool town. Come and build Blackpool landmarks, buildings, trams and even the Illuminations!

Together we will recreate our big, beautiful and bold town.
