Twice as many assaults were reported at Kaos than any other venue in Blackpool.

A Blackpool bar which was the only one in the resort allowed to stay open until 5am every day has had its licensing hours cut back.

But the panel felt trouble mainly broke out between 3am and 5am and “therefore revocation would be a disproportionate response".A hearing held on December 5 heard officers responded to 284 call outs to the bar over 12 months from August 2021 to August 2022. The force claimed more than twice as many assaults were reported at Kaos than any other venue in Blackpool.

“The panel concluded that the way this venue is trading in the early hours of the morning is undermining the licensing objectives. One consequence of this is the pressure placed on police and ambulance resources.”
