A world record diving attempt, a zip wire across the promenade, a visit from a British diving Olympians and some mind-boggling pavement art are just a taste of what’s was offer at the free festival on Fleetwood’s waterfront. Dizzy Heights is a celebration of the town aiming higher, serving as the official launch of the £ Five Fopr Fleetwood scheme. People were invited to pack the Esplanade on Saturday 24 May from noon to 5pm and while they enjoyed five hours of festivities, learning more about Wyre Council’s plans to transform the area with a skate park, splash zone, boats on Marine Lake, a refurbished Euston Gardens and more besides. Most of the festival’s focus takes place around Marine Hall Gardens and the Esplanade, which was closed to traffic. One highlight being a display by La Quebrada, the Mexican high diving company who appeared on Britain’s Got Talent and produced Tom Daley's Splash! show displays. A mind-boggling piece of illusionary pavement art is being created in the days leading up to the event on Marine Hall's colonnade. Although nothing more than chalks and artists pigment, Urban Canvas's amazing work will appear to magically rise from the ground.
