About this venue

Aunty Social is an intimate cultural centre focused on creative, social and artistic events. Rather than operating as a large-scale venue, it offers a more immediate setting suited to workshops, talks, screenings, small performances and community gatherings, where the close connection between participants and audiences becomes part of the experience.

The interior is designed to accommodate different types of programming, allowing the space to be adapted according to the nature of each event. This flexible format works particularly well for smaller cultural activities where clear sightlines, a comfortable atmosphere and direct interaction between visitors are important.

The venue is located at 1930 3rd Ave Lower Level, Blackpool, United Kingdom. As the space is identified as being on the Lower Level, visitors should pay attention to entrance signage and allow a little extra time to locate the correct access point. Those arriving by car may wish to check nearby parking options in advance, while a broader overview of transport and getting around Blackpool is provided further down the page.

About the city: Blackpool

Blackpool, the iconic seaside destination in North West England, is far more than a classic day by the coast – it’s a city that naturally thrives on concerts, sporting events, and major live shows. With a lively atmosphere by the sea, a long-standing entertainment culture, and a strong range of things to do, it’s an attractive choice when you’re looking for event tickets and want an experience that goes well beyond the venue itself.

Getting in and moving around is refreshingly straightforward: the Blackpool Tramway is a distinctive and convenient way to travel along the waterfront, while Blackpool Transport buses connect key neighbourhoods and nearby towns. For rail travellers, Blackpool North is the main station with clear links towards the town centre and the seafront, and Blackpool Airport is an additional option for those arriving by air. With public transport, walkable routes, and a logical city layout working together, reaching the main arenas and stadiums is easy and stress-free.

Make the most of your trip by taking a stroll along the Promenade before or after the event, visiting one of the famous piers such as North Pier, Central Pier or South Pier, or heading up to Blackpool Tower for a signature coastal view. Many visitors also gravitate towards the area around Winter Gardens as the heartbeat of the town, while walks through the older parts of the resort and a relaxing break in the greenery of Stanley Park help turn a concert or match into a complete city-break experience.
