Blackpool Pleasure beach has launched an investigation after visitors claim they had to hand in their digital cameras during the theme park’s opening weekend. Following the incidents the park has insisted that “there has been no change” to its on site camera policy.
Hundreds queued up on Saturday, March 18, to be among the first have a go on Blackpool’s famous rides when the new season launched. But park bosses were forced to take to Twitter after one visitor said they had their DSLR camera confiscated upon arrival at Pleasure Beach, LancsLive reports.
Marcus Gear (@MarcusMagician) took to Twitter after he was told his device was 'apparently banned'. He tweeted: "Made it in to @Pleasure_Beach. Got my digital camera confiscated, apparently they are banned? Have to pick it up later, never knew that?"
