About North Pier
Blackpool North Pier is the oldest of the town’s three piers. Designed by Eugenius Birch, it opened in May 1863 and was originally intended mainly as a promenade for visitors. As Blackpool grew, theatres, bars and other attractions were added. Today the pier remains one of the town’s best-known landmarks, while the nearby tram stop is also useful for the Winter Gardens, town centre and Blackpool North railway station.
