The Red Rose finished second in Group B to secure a home quarter-final and, with Emirates Old Trafford unavailable due to the Test match between England and South Africa, the Club has opted to retain home advantage by hosting the match in Blackpool.
Lancashire have already played three matches at the venue this season, winning two – including last week’s record List A run chase against Northants Steelbacks – with one no result.
Director of Cricket Performance Mark Chilton said: “We have enjoyed a superb group stage, winning five of our matches, to secure ourselves a home quarter-final.
“We have been aware for a while that it would not be possible to play at Emirates Old Trafford, due to a clash with the Test match, and I am delighted that we have been able to secure Blackpool for what I am sure will be another superb day of cricket by the coast.
“Being able to retain home advantage is hugely significant for us and I would like to thank everybody at Blackpool CC for their support, along with Lancashire Cricket staff.
“To be able to put on this event alongside a Test match is a remarkable effort and one that is greatly appreciated by the players and cricket staff alike.”
