Comedy Carpet, The Promenade, Blackpool
Blackpool’s Comedy Carpet provides a fun place to get inside the craft of comedy. Created by artist Gordon Young (in collaboration with the Why Not Associates), this work of visual art displays legendary jokes, songs, and catchphrases in sentence form.
The work pays homage to more than 1,000 comedians and writers, and spans across 2,200 sq m (23,680 sq ft).
