Have you got a head for heights and a heart for homelessness? Always fancied looking at the world from a different angle?

Every year, Shelter look for brave participants to stand with them in their fight to end homelessness...at the top of one of the world's tallest rollercoasters! We ask for a £25 registration fee and a request to set your minimum fundraising target at £150.

Blackpool Pleasure Beach have yet to release dates for this activity in 2026. If you would like to express an interest to participate in this challenge, please register and add yourself to the waiting list.

WHAT YOU CAN EXPECT WHEN YOU WALK THE BIG ONE...

You start with a ‘Meet and Greet’ and presentation including a full safety briefing followed by kit-up training and checks on the use of the safety equipment.

You will then be escorted to the base of The Big One main pull-up where you will walk up to the very top of The Big One lift hill.

The ascent will pause at every 50ft to take in the surroundings views and provide an opportunity to hear more about the ride and details of how it works.

Once at the top of the 235ft lift hill there will be ample opportunity to take in the incredible views and secure those lasting pictures.

After descending the 420 steps with a pause at 100ft, your experience ends with a Walk The Big One medal!
