No its nothing special at all for a night out. Try Manchester if thats convenient or if you are on the pull Blackpool, but beware its cheesey!

I used to work the door in Burnley and wouldn't recommend it for a night out. It is rough and you can pretty much guarantee to end up fighting. I live in Preston and would recommend that for a good night if you have never been and don't fancy Manchester. It is linked well with Burnley by the best thing ever to come have come out of that town which is the M65! Used to take me 20minutes on a clear run to get home. There is a Holiday Inn and a Travel Lodge within walking distance of the bars and clubs. :TU:

As a fellow Blackpool resident as can 100% wholeheartedly disagree. Blackpool is an ok night if you like dance remixes of soulless pop tune crap. Poulton is full of WAG wannabe label watchers.

Oh by the Che Bar bouncers frown upon people wearing Henley shirts too. I've never been on a night out in Burnley so I can't pass say if it's a good night out. There is apparantley a decent rock venue which when ICON (local rock band) are playing is a quality night out.

Suppose it depends what you are going for really??

If it`s heavy booze and a bit of roughshod pummel up the alley, Burnley will be perfect. If you can`t get laid in Burnley, you`ve got problems. Might be a rough bird, but at the tail end of a night, standards are bound to drop anyway.
There`s some big beasts out that way, so just make sure you don`t burn your arse on the lightbulb :TU:
