Parking at The Big One on Clifton Drive
The attraction is at Clifton Drive, Blackpool, FY4 1EZ, with the nearest parking arrangement depending on the event being attended. The Big One Fishing Show at Farnborough International Exhibition Centre advertises free parking, with VIP ticket holders receiving preferential parking and parking clearly signposted on arrival (thebigoneshow.co.uk). VIP visitors are asked to display their VIP parking hanger when entering the venue, otherwise they may be directed into general parking (thebigoneshow.co.uk).
Those show details apply to Farnborough International rather than the Blackpool attraction, so they should not be treated as arrangements for Clifton Drive. The Blackpool site sits in the Pleasure Beach area, where nearby private spaces provide a practical alternative to searching for an attraction car park.

Busy Days and Street Parking Near The Big One
Event days can place extra pressure on parking around Clifton Drive because the attraction is located in the Pleasure Beach district. The wider fishing show’s published opening times are Saturday 09:00 to 18:00, with Hall 1 using Gate F for vehicles and Gate B for pedestrians (farnborough.com). Those times relate to the Farnborough 2026 event, not the Blackpool attraction.
Street parking around South Shore is controlled by local signs and restrictions, so drivers should avoid treating residential roads as overflow parking. A booked off-street space removes the need to circle during busy visitor periods and keeps the approach to Clifton Drive separate from event traffic.
