Blackpool illuminations is an annual Lights Festival, founded in 1879 and first switched on 18 September that year, held each autumn in the English seaside resort of Blackpool on the Fylde Coast in Lancashire
The Blackpool illuminations run each year for sixty - six days, from late August until early November at a time when most other English Seaside resorts' seasons are coming to an end. Dubbed as 'the greatest free light show on earth', the illuminations are 6 miles (10 km) long and use over one million bulbs.
Every year there is also the Festival of Light which features interactive installations and is described as being 'a conteporary look at the concept of light and art working together to create entertaiment'
