The Comedy Carpet — Attraction in England

Love Blackpool, stayed in lovely b&b for 1 night while we attended pier jam (Allendale in Albert road ) 30/07/22. However pier jam not so much No disabled toilets with running water (I had emailed in advance to ask if there were any disabled toilets, and was told yes there would be) No running water No hand sanitizer Toilets FULL of empty drug containers No real searches Sniffer dogs were FAKE They profiled people I need to carry anti sickness meds with me, the security cleared them without even looking in the box or actually at the tablets I could of carried all sorts in ! Drinks & food ques weren’t too bad to be fair, couple be better, considering they are aware of how many will be attending, surely the more staff you put on the more drinks/food you’ll sell 🤷‍♀️ NOT A festival of any sorts, no festival vibe, no stalls, no extras NO WRISTBANDS, it’s not a festival without wristbands I’m aware it’s not a seated event however, being as it’s run from 2pm-11pm & once your in you can’t leave, a small dry seating area would of being lovely just for half hour while we caught our breath, had something to eat and the carried on, not asking for tables and chairs, I’d cop a squat if the floor was dry ! VIP is what’s that ???? We were well and truly RIPPED OFF now we still don’t know the real reason why we were SOLD vip,at an extra cost, only to find when we arrived, there was NO VIP, I got 3 different answers of members of staff

1. VIP was last night (totally different event, that was called hellfire or something, different acts etc) we didn’t have tickets for the Friday only the Saturday.
2. VIP had to be cancelled ! ( they gave no reason why it was cancelled and we never received any form on communication from #pierjam or skiddle regarding any cancellations)
3. “O did you get done by the VIP SCAM?” Now I honestly have no idea if any of those excuse are actually real reasons or whether there is another ? Because lots of attendees have asked the same question “Why no VIP?” And as of today #pierjam nor #skiddle have not given any reason why we paid extra for VIP for did not receive it !! Would love any answer to this please I eventually got to front of stage, 1 row of young ladies in front of me, my issue here is…. There was a bit of scuffling and bullying and scrapping up the front, but there wasn’t 1 security guard in front of the railings !! If anyone had been taken ill or passed out, the only person who would see would be the artist on the stage and his crew!!! Disgusting !!!!! Prices of drinks were as to be expected so can’t complain about that. £4 for a big hotdog was great value (independent trader) My main concerns for any future #pierjam events is A) no disabled facilities B) no running water or hand sanitizer C) VIP SCAM- paid for something we didn’t receive D) you call THAT security ? Seriously ? Seriously Blackpool council you are part blame for this, you need to make sure your letting decent event organisers onto your grounds. You need to go check that what they say will be there is actually there You need to go and make sure it has basic human needs met !! No pier jam for me again !! Blackpool 5* #pierjam...

A Whimsical Gem by the Sea ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Nestled right between the iconic Blackpool Tower and the sparkling beachfront, the Comedy Carpet is a delightful surprise that instantly won me over. Beautifully crafted and bursting with character, it's a vibrant celebration of British comedy, etched into the very ground beneath your feet.

Every corner invites a photo opportunity, with its clever quotes and playful design making the perfect backdrop for memorable snapshots. I especially loved the thoughtfulness in providing plenty of seating—perfect for pausing to enjoy the sea breeze or soak in the witty tributes.

Whether you're a fan of classic comedy or just love discovering something unique, this spot is a must-visit. I truly enjoyed my time there and left with both laughter and...

A great place to hang out & chill, in the middle of the promenade under the shadow of Blackpool Tower overlooking the Irish Sea with unspoilt sea views. With seating situated on all sides, there's always a seat to be had. With takeaway food within a 50yd walk either north or south, grab some food, take a seat any enjoy the comedy carpet. You could spend hours with your head down Reading all the crazy whacky quotes from your favourite comedians over the years. There's bus & tram stops within 50yds of the carpet, but unfortunately there's no actual parking allowance available for car's!!! It's also one of the best viewing points along the prom for the major festivities that Blackpool hold...
