The Blackpool Tower was a structure and visitor attraction in the town of Blackpool, England.

The tower complex included both a ballroom and a circus. (PROSE: All the Empty Towers)

During the latter half of the 20th century, the Third Doctor magnetised the tower to stop a swarm of metal-eating insects. Another account implied that these events happened to the Fourth Doctor. (COMIC: The Metal-Eaters)

The Sixth Doctor and Peri Brown visited Blackpool Tower in 1986 to look at the views over Blackpool and beyond. The Doctor praised the architecture. Peri, on the other hand, called it a "rusty old tower". (AUDIO: The Nightmare Fair)

The timey-wimey detector was made up of items including a Blackpool postcard, prominently featuring Blackpool Tower. (TV: Blink)

While visiting Blackpool in 2089, the Twelfth Doctor and Clara Oswald noticed four small pods hovering and drawing power from the tower. The Doctor and Clara climbed the lift shaft to the viewing platform, where they found the controls and shut down both the pods and a robotic landlady by whom they had previously been terrorised. (PROSE: All the Empty Towers)

Bernice Summerfield falsely said that Blackpool Tower had been destroyed in the late 20th century to test Ace's claim that she was from that time. (PROSE: Love and War)

The Sixth Doctor once claimed that a replica of the Blackpool Tower was being built on the rim of the Crab Nebula. (PROSE: The Nightmare Fair; AUDIO: The Nightmare Fair)
