A very warm welcome to Lancashire!
Official guide for short breaks, days out and places to see in Lancashire
Welcome to VisitLancashire.com, offering a tantalising glimpse into a county of contrasting landscapes, diverse heritage and plentiful food and drink, covering 3,075 km2 of England’s North West. There is something for everyone, with countryside, canals, coast and towns. Enjoy stunning views, quiet lanes, rare wildlife and our famous Lancashire coastline. There is the unique, wildlife rich Morecambe Bay in the north to the flat and fertile coastal plains around Ormskirk and the Ribble Estuary. The world-famous seaside town of Blackpool with its iconic Tower in the west to the undulating fells and moorland of the Forest of Bowland Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty and the famous Pendle Hill in the east, visitors to Lancashire are truly spoilt!
We have a packed year-round events calendar here in Lancashire. Enjoy award-winning music and food festivals, concerts in castles or stately homes. Take part in one of the UK's biggest free walking festivals in Pendle, the UK’s largest walkabout theatre in England’s historic city of Lancaster, or ride the UK's first double launch coaster ICON opening at Blackpool Pleasure Beach this spring. Make sure you follow us on Facebook or Twitter for the latest events, special offers and new developments. We hope we’ve inspired you to choose Lancashire for a short break or to welcome you back again to the county where life feels good!
