There’s so much to see and do across<br />
the Fylde Coast, it’s a good job we’ve<br />
got you covered with simple, great<br />
value fares.<br />
Our tickets are always cheaper on our mobile app,<br />
but you can still buy your tickets on board from the<br />
driver or conductor in cash too!<br />
Single fares<br />
We’ve got four simple fares if you’re only making<br />
one journey and the price depends on how far you’re<br />
travelling. Just let the driver or conductor know<br />
where you’d like to go and they’ll help with the best<br />
value ticket.<br />
Saver tickets<br />
If you’re making more than one trip you’ll want to get<br />
one of our Saver Tickets. Whether it’s 24 hours, 3<br />
<strong>Day</strong>s, 7 <strong>Day</strong>s or a month, we’ve got your covered.<br />
How to buy your ticket<br />
Download our mobile app: Tickets are always<br />
cheaper on our app. Just search Blackpool<br />
Transport in your app store, buy your ticket and<br />
show the driver or conductor when you board!<br />
Buy onboard: You can buy most tickets whilst on<br />
the bus or tram using cash. If you’re unsure which<br />
ticket is best for you our team can help you choose.<br />
Buy in advance: You can visit our customer centre<br />
on Market Street, Blackpool to buy a paper ticket or<br />
pick up a timetable. We’re open Monday – Saturday<br />
and our friendly team are always happy to help.<br />
24 Hour Ticket<br />
Unlimited travel on any Blackpool Transport bus or<br />
tram for 24 hours. Buy on board from your driver or<br />
conductor or download our app and get your ticket<br />
on your phone. Nice and easy.<br />
3 <strong>Day</strong> Ticket<br />
If you’re here for more than a day, our 3 <strong>Day</strong> ticket<br />
might be for you. Take the tram or the bus as many<br />
times as you like.<br />
7 <strong>Day</strong> Ticket<br />
A 7 <strong>Day</strong> ticket is great value. Even if you only need<br />
to travel for 4 or 5 days, it’s still cheaper than<br />
buying single tickets.<br />
30 <strong>Day</strong> Ticket<br />
Our 30 <strong>Day</strong> Ticket is great if you’re travelling for<br />
more than a week, but this can only be bought in<br />
advance on our mobile app, from our customer<br />
centre or from any PayPoint outlet.<br />
Concessions<br />
If you’re a holder of a concessionary travel card<br />
you can travel on any of our buses completely<br />
free of charge – not bad eh? Our trams are a<br />
little different, only holders of concessionary<br />
passes issued by Blackpool or Wyre Borough<br />
Council can travel for free but don’t let that spoil<br />
your fun, just take the bus!
