In Parliament @JohnGlenUK spoke about the cost of a holiday tax to domestic visitors.
“People who can’t afford to go abroad will now be burdened with additional costs to have a few days away.”
This tax will hit all overnight trips in England #StopTheHolidayTax

Autumn is when Blackpool comes alive ✨💡
As the darker nights set in, the coast lights up with the World Fireworks Championship Blackpool, the nightly Illuminations and those crisp promenade strolls under bright, fiery sunsets. There’s so much to look forward to this season 🍁🍂

“The average hospitality business is paying 75% of its profits in tax.”
The hospitality sector already carries the highest tax burden in the UK, and introducing another layer of tax would squeeze profit margins even more and threaten business viability.

No Switch-On tickets? No problem. Golden Circle tickets are your last chance to guarantee entry to Blackpool's biggest night of the year. Once they’re gone, they’re gone!
See iconic boyband Five, rock quintet The Feeling and chart-topping singer-songwriter Lucy Spraggan perform live, before BBC Radio 2's Paddy McGuinness lights up Blackpool for the official Switch-On moment.
