Elmer's Big Parade art trail bringing 30 elephant sculptures to Blackpool

We've had the Manchester bees and the snowmen at Salford Quays, now it's Blackpool's turn to play host to its own art trail.

The seaside resort will be welcoming 30 Elmer the Patchwork Elephant sculptures as part of the event from Wild in Art.

Inspired by David McKee’s beloved children’s book character, each large sculpture will be uniquely decorated by established and up and coming artists, creating a parade through the town that will be enjoyed by visitors and locals for eight weeks.
