Pose on the Prom STAYS large!
Welcome to the website for the famous annual GoldWing Light Parade at Blackpool Illuminations (aka "Pose on the Prom"!), where hundreds of GoldWingers attempt to better the lights of the Illuminations themselves by parading and displaying their wonderfully lit luxury touring bikes along the crowd-lined Golden Mile of Blackpool’s Promenade.
PLEASE NOTE: Pontin's Bookings Desk at Blackpool is currently experiencing extremely high volumes of calls, so please keep trying – if the main number at 01253 340100 isn't working for you, please try 01253 340101
The 2009 Light Parade will be held on Saturday Sept 5th as part of a full weekend of friendship and entertainment to which all GoldWing owners and their friends are invited. This is THE Event of the year for the UK GoldWing Community, so don’t miss it!
For complete details of the wide range of activities being planned, see the Overview and Programme pages. For details of the great value accommodation (including food) at Pontin’s where the Event is based, check out the Accommodation page.
Visit the Photos and Video pages for an impression of how spectacular the GoldWings look when they are lit up and the wonderful party atmosphere of this fabulous Event. There are even movies of the previous Light Parades for you to watch!
More information about GoldWings, plus Blackpool and its famous Illuminations, is available via our Useful links page.
If you have any questions, you are very welcome to contact the organisers using our Contact page — we will respond promptly. See you in Blackpool!
It’s going to be a Great Weekend!
