Blackpool Beach Litter Pick Marathon
There’s something powerful about people coming together to make a difference—and that’s exactly what the Blackpool Beach Litter Pick Marathon is all about.
On 6th May 2026 (9:30–10:30am), we’re inviting residents, businesses and visitors to roll up their sleeves and help protect Blackpool’s beautiful coastline.
This is our second year running the event, and after the incredible turnout last year, we know what’s possible when our community comes together. In just one hour, hundreds of volunteers made a visible difference and this year, we’re aiming even higher.
By joining the marathon, you’ll:
- Help keep Blackpool’s beach clean and safe
- Protect marine life and the environment
- Be part of a positive, community-driven event
- Meet like-minded people who care about where they live and visit
And don’t worry, we’ll provide everything you need, including litter pickers and bags. All you need to bring is comfortable clothing, suitable footwear, and a willingness to get stuck in.
We’ve made it easy to get involved, with four locations across the promenade:
- Queens Promenade
- Gynn Square
- Central Promenade
- South Promenade
Simply pick the one that suits you best when you sign up.
Who Can Get Involved? Everyone.
Whether you’re a:
- Resident who wants to take pride in their local area
- Business looking to give back to the community
- Visitor wanting to leave Blackpool better than they found it
(Children under 16 just need to be accompanied by an adult.)
