Brighton – The UK’s cultural hotspot

With the Theatre Royal celebrating its 200th birthday this year and the city hosting the UK’s largest arts festival each May, Brighton is fast becoming the cultural hot spot of the UK. A free-thinking city with culture on every corner, Brighton is a hive of energy offering visitors a breath of fresh air and a unique short break destination.

Boasting cultural and historic attractions, boutique accommodation and fabulous festivals throughout the year, Brighton offers the very best in art, music, theatre and dance, providing a vibrant atmosphere to complement every break.

From the Food and Drink Festival in September 2007 and the Comedy Festival in October 2007, to CineCity in November 2007 and Brighton Festival, in May 2008, there’s something special for everyone to enjoy.

When it comes to ideas for night time activities in Brighton, visitors are never short of options. After hours, the city combines cosmopolitan bars and restaurants with local and international theatre and music all within ten minutes walk of one another!
