Hey, I have some news about Blackpool’s leisure centers. Prices are going up by five percent. This affects swimming, sports halls, and football pitches. They need to cover their own rising costs.

The price for an adult swim is changing. It will cost £4.60, a bit more than the old £4.40. You’ll see this at Moor Park and Palatine. Using the climbing wall will also cost more.

Good news: gym membership prices will stay the same. The council wants to consider everyone’s finances right now. They also have their own rising expenses to think about.

Their expenses include energy bills and staff pay. Staff wages are expected to increase in April. It’s part of the Living Wage requirement. The price increase will help keep things in order.

Maintenance is key to them. Parks and fields get used for many sports. Lots of teams use them and this is good for local tourism.

The cost to rent a 3G pitch will change. It will now cost £46.45, up from £44.25. Cricket pitch rental will also increase slightly. It rises to £50.55, up from £48.15.
