About

Welcome to Viva Blackpool, the resort’s home of live entertainment, laughter and unforgettable moments for the whole family. Right in the heart of Blackpool, just a stone’s throw from the Tower and seafront, Viva is more than a theatre – it’s an experience. A place where world-class performers, warm hospitality, great food and good times come together under one sparkling roof.

✨ A Show for Every Generation Whether you’re visiting for a day, a weekend, or you’re lucky enough to live locally, Viva has a show to suit every age and every taste. Our year-round entertainment calendar is bursting with variety, from our dazzling resident productions to spectacular touring shows, comedy nights, family spectaculars, and special themed events. Families can take their pick from a line-up that includes Megaslam Wrestling, where heroes and villains battle it out in the ring to the delight of children and parents alike; or the Ultimate Pop Party, a colourful concert experience where kids can sing and dance along to chart hits from stars like Taylor Swift, Dua Lipa, Sabrina Carpenter and Olivia Rodrigo.

For curious minds, there’s the Top Secret Science & Magic Show – an interactive blend of mind-bending experiments and incredible illusions that will have the whole family gasping in amazement. Little explorers will love Dino Explorers, where prehistoric fun meets live theatre, and everyone can join in the adventure. At Christmas time, Viva transforms into a winter wonderland with festive productions including Viva’s Big Christmas Show, Spirit of Christmas, and family-friendly favourites featuring Santa, elves, and plenty of seasonal sparkle.
