About DR John Cooper Clarke

An evening with the punk poet, all sharp suits, sharper couplets and a delivery that outpaces most acts half his age. Expect rapid-fire wordplay, dry asides between poems, and a set that moves from social observation to outright absurdity without warning. A midweek date means a steadier crowd and a bit more room to actually hear every line. Bring your own punchlines; he won't need help with his.

Where to stay nearby

Most people see this one from Blackpool itself, a mile from the venue and with by far the largest choice of hotels. Lytham St Annes offers a quieter, more residential alternative a short drive away, with a smaller but decent hotel selection. Manchester works if you'd rather base yourself in a bigger city and travel in for the evening, though it's a longer trip at around 65km, so plan for an hour or so on the road.

Blackpool — about 1 km away
