The incredibly popular Rigby Road Depot Tours in Blackpool are now booking for early 2022 – and they will now be taking place twice a week throughout January and February! The tours are all led by fully trained guides and take in both the main tram sheds as well as the workshops – and what’s more all money from ticket sales goes directly to the preservation of the historic depot building.
When are tours taking place?
- Every Saturday from 8th January to 26th February at 1100
- Every Monday from 10th January to 28th February at 1100
How Much do they cost?
- Adults – £5
- Children (3-15) – £2.50 (must be accompanied by an adult)
A fee of £1 is added to each booking
Further tours are expected to be added from March onwards in the new year.
