Blackpool’s historic ballroom still enchants. May we have this dance?

Dancers have been waltzing across the famous floor at the Blackpool Tower Ballroom for more than a century. It’s one of many entertainment options at Blackpool Tower, the iconic 518-foot-tall tourist attraction originally inspired by the Eiffel Tower in Paris. These days, when people talk about the tower, they may be referring to the building’s many associated venues – a circus, theatre and the ornate ballroom shown here.
