Viva La Blackpool As New Resort Pass Adds Night Time Attraction
26 July 2013
by Visit Blackpool
Blackpool’s ResortPass offering huge discounts to the resort’s top attractions now has its first night-time venue, bringing greater benefits to its users.
Critically-acclaimed VIVA Blackpool cabaret and showbar on the resort’s famous golden mile, complete with showgirls, singers and comedians, has already been listed as the number one attraction on holiday website TripAdvisor, voted the Best Live Entertainment venue in the resort’s ‘Culture & Lifestyle Awards’ and shot to national fame earlier this year when it featured on ITV1’s Saturday Night Takeaway with Ant and Dec.
The swish venue, which neighbours The Blackpool Tower, boasts a 600 capacity theatre showbar and VIP private bar for functions and parties. Funnyman and owner Leye D Johns regularly tours with artists including Joe Longthorne MBE and brings a wealth of experience and talent to Blackpool’s latest night-time venue.
Brand new to Blackpool for 2013 is the BlackpoolResortPass which is an exclusive one-stop ticket to up to nine of the resort’s top attractions giving people the opportunity to enjoy Blackpool’s best offerings at huge discounts.
Leye D Johns is a big supporter of the ResortPass and is delighted that Viva is now included. He said: “This pass offers visitors the very best the resort has to offer with big savings to be made for visitors wanting to experience top attractions.
“It is a great honour for Viva to be selected as the first night time option for visitors as a bolt-on option. Indeed there are lots of brilliant options for visitors this year in Blackpool as far as entertainment goes with a whole variety of shows on offer. Here at VIVA, we offer the complete night out under one roof with optional pre-show dining, a full night of entertainment and a welcoming environment for all. We welcome all ages and visitors to the venue, from families, couples, seniors and groups.
“We like to feel that we reflect what Blackpool is all about – creating great memories with family and friends here in the resort. There are quality things to do here in the evening for locals and visitors alike and we need to tell more and more people about the shows and award winning venues such as ours that are here right in the middle of town!”
Visitors can now enjoy discounted reserved seats at VIVA which can be selected when purchasing the ResortPass at the Tourist Information Centre at Festival House on the Promenade or online at blackpoolresortpass.com. Purchasers can select either a reserved seat option for the show, or choose a full 3-course pre-show dinner option prior to the performance.
The BlackpoolResortPass is the brainchild of Marketing Blackpool, offering visitors discounted entrance to The Blackpool Tower Eye & 4D Experience, The Blackpool Tower Dungeon, SEA LIFE Blackpool, Madame Tussauds, BlackpoolPleasureBeach, NickelodeonLand, Blackpool Zoo, Sandcastle Waterpark and Blackpool Model Village & Gardens.
Marketing Blackpool Managing Director Natalie Wyatt added: “The ResortPass is a huge success and we’re really pleased to welcome Viva onto this initiative. It proves that we can all work together to give visitors a wide range of quality and choice during their visit to the resort and there’s something for people to do both night and day. We hope many people take advantage to go and see one of the shows at VIVA with their family and friends and hope to enable the other show venues to also get on board.”
