Blackpool Pleasure Beach and in 2015 the park teamed up with the RAF to open the "Red Arrow's Skyforce" a thrill ride based on the famous air acrobatic team. In early December 2015 the Tom Sawyer bridge was removed and replaced with a new walkway. Pleasure Beach is situated on a site along the South Promenade (Ocean Boulevard) area of Blackpool, approximately 2.2 miles from Blackpool North Railway Station. It is bordered by the Promenade, Balmoral Road, Bond Street, Burlington Road West and Clifton Drive, and is situated above Watson Road, which is underneath the grounds and runs under the centre of the
Blackpool Pleasure Beach in 1935. Paige had designed numerous other rides at the Pleasure Beach, including the "Rollercoaster", another wooden coaster that was constructed on the site of The Velvet Coaster in 1933. The success of Paiges' wooden coasters resulted in a complete reprofiling of the Big Dipper in 1936, which was extended towards the south-westerly side of the park. During this time Thompson hired Joseph Emberton, an award-winning architect who was brought in to redesign the architectural style of the Pleasure Beach rides and buildings, working on The Casino Building, Noah's Ark and the "Ice Drome", a 2,000 seat ice rink.
