As Brits we are renowned to be pretty good at queuing.
And with Blackpool being such a magnet for entertainment, the resort has seen its fair share of long, winding queues of people wanting tickets for gigs and concerts, to meet their heroes, watch the latest movie or grab hot tickets for Blackpool FC’s biggest games. Have a look at these pictures which have been snapped by our photographers through the years as people queued up for a reason.
