Blackpool’s Golden Mile, the British equivalent to the beaches of Palma de Majorca, is going to have a name change and will soon be called the ‘Queen Elizabeth Promenade’.
Local politicians have decided to give the stretch of beach from the city’s North Pier to the South Pier a new name as it is nearing the end of its £100 million renovation. The ‘Queen Elizabeth Promenade’ will then offer improved walkways, a new wedding venue and a new outdoor event space called the ‘Tower Festival Headland’.
“Our new promenade is going to be world class so we believe it deserves a new title”, said leader of the council Peter Callow. Callow also said that the number of lap dancing clubs with licences will be cut down from twelve to two in order to go with Blackpool’s new improved image.
