Blackpool Pleasure Beach’s Ice Blast tower ride is to be relaunched as the space-themed Launch Pad in 2025.
In the Blackpool Destination Guide 2025 by Visit Blackpool, the ride is described as having received a new pressure cylinder.
The marketing material added that the ride experience would be ‘transformed’ by the change.
An image of an astronaut overlooking the S&S-manufactured ride gave a glimpse of its new space theme.
Initially called PlayStation: The Ride! and later Tango Ice Blast, the ride was added for the 1997 season.
Blackpool Pleasure Beach is scheduled to begin its 2025 main season on 1 March.
Launch Pad’s opening date has not yet been announced.
The Lancashire amusement park rebranded to the Pleasure Beach Resort name earlier this year.
