Full plans to build a conference and exhibition centre as part of the Winter Gardens complex have been revealed and, if realised, could put Blackpool back in the conference premier league. 

The £25m project has been outlined by developers and the planned new conference and the planned conference centre will increase the capacity of the Winter Gardens, allowing it to host over 7,000 delegates.
