Blackpool versus Benidorm
You are going to sell either Blackpool or Benidorm as a holiday destination in 2050 to residents in the UK, who have not yet booked their holiday.
In groups create a Powerpoint presentation promoting Blackpool or Benidorm as an ideal holiday destination in 2050. Remember to keep those CO2 emissions as low as you can. Research information, images and slogans that you can use to promote your resort as the holiday destination.
You need to persuade people to go to your resort. Think about:
- the reasons why people go on holiday
- how will people travel
- where they will stay and what they may eat
- what they will do – for elderly people, young people, families with young children
- local attractions of the area
- the weather!
