Kaos on Queen Street is the only venue in the resort currently allowed to stay open until 5am every day

A battle that has been bubble away for a while over licensing hours at a Blackpool bar has been settled after agreement was reached with the council over opening times.

Owner Neil Cropper was forced to close the whole premises at 3am. But after Kaos appealed the decision, it has now been agreed the bar can serve alcohol until 3.30am and must shut at 4am.Agreement was resolved by consent, after the appeal was heard at Blackpool Magistrates Court on Friday, June 9. Licensing conditions have been strengthened in relation to the use of door supervisors and polycarbonate glasses.

Mr Cropper had appeared before a licensing panel last December after the police had submitted evidence to the council warning the venue had become “a magnet for crime and disorder”. Issues first emerged in September last year when a police report revealed more than twice as many assaults had been reported at Kaos than any other venue in Blackpool.
