About Brighton
Brighton is one of the most enchanting, exciting, extraordinary seaside cites in Britain. With its cosmopolitan air, oodles of restaurants, hotels, guest houses, self- catering, bed and breakfast and B&Bs, feverish nightlife and abundance of culture for visitors and locals, the place defies comparison with anywhere else this side of the English Channel.

For centuries it has been regarded as a 'pleasure dome', and that's not about to change. If you love life, welcome to Brighton.

There are so many things to do in Brighton - from its historic landmarks such as Brighton Pier and the Royal Pavilion to its unique blend of traditional and modern culture. There are many famous attractions and events such as Brighton Marina, Brighton Museum & Gallery and much more.
Location
Brighton is more than the seaside and more than the city. Fashionable, funky and loaded with style, Brighton & Hove has everything you could want from a trip to Britain - a royal palace, elegant Regency architecture, museums with more, laid-back beach life and superb shopping – all just 49 minutes from central London.
Culture and heritage
Walking around Brighton, 400 years of history and style unfold before you. The Royal Pavilion is the magnificent palace created by King George IV, and is an eclectic mix of styles that has to be seen to be believed. Elsewhere, there are museums and galleries galore, special events throughout the year from car rallies to carnivals, and England’s largest arts festival in May.
Attractions
Don’t miss the Royal Pavilion, home of King George IV, and probably the most exotic, extravagant royal palace in Europe. Stroll along the Victorian Pier and the beachfront, where stylish bars and cafés spill out onto the curved paving, jostling for space with surfer shops, giant sculptures, buskers, fresh fish and artists’ studios.
Food and drink
Brighton’s diversity extends to its choice of restaurants. With more than 400 to choose from you can eat your way around the world. Along the beachfront between the two Piers there are several restaurants and cafés – perfect for people-watching. You’ll certainly be spoilt for choice when it comes to food in Brighton, but don’t miss the fantastic fish and chips!
Shopping
Brighton truly is a shopper’s paradise. Explore the intricate maze of twisting alleyways and hidden squares in the 17th century Brighton Laines. The bustling criss-cross streets of the North Laine make a great hunting ground for unique retro, vintage and kitsch finds. And bargain hunters will love the weekend markets and Brighton Marina for discount shopping at factory outlet shops.
The Conference Centre
Brighton is recognised nationally and internationally as a successful, dynamic conference destination, combining a seaside location with a vibrant city atmosphere.

The Brighton Centre is the south coasts premier venue. With the biggest worldwide music acts, and international conferences, the Brighton Centre continues to offer the perfect location by the sea! The Centre is one of the largest purpose built conference and exhibition centres in the South of England. Situated on the seafront within a few metres of the major hotels and restaurants.

As well as hosting business conferences, concerts, entertainment events, and a regular records & comics sale, the Centre is known for regularly hosting conferences of the major British political parties.
With an events team experienced in managing high security and high profile events alongside the flexible and compact nature of the building, Brighton Centre continues to be the popular choice for conferences, exhibitions and meetings organizers, and now BMUS 2010!

The centre has light, airy and spacious interiors, with panoramic sea views and easy access. There are 6 main meeting rooms and a further 12 breakout rooms, open plan refreshment areas and up to 3,400m² accessible exhibition space.
