The pier has only changed hands three times in its 104-year history
|
The Grand Pier in Weston-super-Mare has officially reopened this weekend after a massive revamp.
It was sold earlier this year in a multi-million pound deal to brother and sister Michelle and Kerry Michael.
The quarter-of-a-mile-long pier, which attracts thousands of visitors a year, had been owned by the Brenner family for three generations.
The improvements include new rides, new restaurants, a gift shop and a store selling traditional sweets.
The pier has only changed hands three times in its 104-year history.
Free rides and entertainment are being offered all weekend to mark the official reopening.
