Blackpool Pleasure Beach has released a new CGI video giving a preview of its new pendulum ride - set to be the tallest in the UK.
Holidaymakers don't have too long to wait to experience the £8.72million attraction, as it is due to launch in 2026.
The seaside amusement park shared the digital footage on their Facebook page, revealing the massive gyro swing that will transform the resort's iconic skyline.
The clip, produced by the park's creative department, displays the towering attraction positioned next to the renowned Big One roller coaster, running by the coastline.

Previously shrouded in secrecy under the codename 'Project 2026', the name has now been announced. The ride will be called Aviktas.
The 138-foot structure will become Britain's tallest pendulum ride when it opens, significantly exceeding the current record holder. Drayton Manor's Maelstrom attraction, which stands at roughly 74 feet, will be eclipsed by the new installation's impressive height.
The enormous spinning ride will position guests facing outwards as they soar through the air, creating a sensation of flight. Blackpool's latest investment represents a substantial engineering feat that will dominate the resort's landscape.
The attraction's scale demonstrates the park's commitment to delivering record-breaking experiences, with the gyro swing set to become a prominent feature along the Lancashire coast.
The massive pendulum will accommodate 40 thrill-seekers who will experience dramatic 120-degree swings whilst suspended with their feet hanging freely.
Passengers will essentially feel as though they're soaring through the air, with the ride designed to replicate the sensation of flight. The attraction's positioning adjacent to the Big One roller coaster creates a striking visual combination along Blackpool's seafront.
Riders will face outwards throughout the experience, amplifying the intensity as they swing high above the ground. The gyro swing's motion and open seating configuration promise to deliver an adrenaline-pumping experience unlike any other pendulum ride currently operating in Britain.
CEO of Pleasure Beach Resort, Amanda Thompson OBE, said: "We're known for going big at Pleasure Beach, and Aviktas is exactly that.

"We hope by releasing this video, guests will be able to understand the mammoth scale of our new investment, and the huge impact it’ll have on our park and the industry as a whole.
"This ride will be colossal, daunting, exhilarating and an incredible addition to the town. This is the first small tease of what we have planned; there are plenty more teasers on the way. Keep an eye on our socials, as what may now seem mysterious will eventually be revealed!"
Clearance work has already been finished at the previous Bowl-A-Drome location where the pendulum ride will be constructed.
Blackpool has long been a popular choice for Britons on a staycation, and it was recently named the number one choice for a UK budget break.
