About The Galleon Bar
The Galleon Bar at 68-70 Abingdon Street (FY1 1NH) is one of Blackpool's quirkiest and most-loved bars — and a genuine grassroots music venue. Every wall and room is a pop-art installation crammed with memorabilia, posters, records, guitars and paintings; Jools Holland once called it the best-decorated music venue he'd seen in Europe. It specialises in live jazz, blues and beyond, with guest and talented musicians performing from a small stage in the main bar throughout the week, plus karaoke. A welcoming, inclusive spot open all seven days, it's a Blackpool institution for live music lovers.
