3 – 10 Minute City

Brighton’s compact.

Most of our major venues and hotels are within 10 minutes walk of each other, including the railway station. Giving you more time to greet, meet and eat! Where else could you attend a meeting, visit a Royal Palace, have a swim, go shopping and take in a show all in one day?

4 – Largest conference destination in the South East

From traditional to downright quirky, Brighton offers a fabulous mix of venues to suit all your business needs.

The largest, the Brighton Centre, offers 4500 seats and a venue in a prime location opposite the sea, just moments from major hotels and attractions.

5 – 13,000 Bed Spaces in the City

Brighton has undergone constant regeneration over recent years.

The new ‘cultural quarter’, the buzzing hub of all that’s artistic in the city, boasts the award winning myhotel as its centrepiece, whilst Jury’s Inn by the station is perfect for immediate rail access. The newly refurbished Radisson Blu offers a further 59 stylish guest rooms to the city’s extensive offering.

6 – Wireless City

Often termed ‘silicon valley by the sea’ and voted one of the top European destinations for WIFI, you’re usually within seconds of a WIFI connection in the city.

You’ll also find blanket coverage between the 2 famous piers on the seafront, making surfing and emailing on the go a seamless part of your day.

7 – Rejuvenating sea air

People say there’s something about the atmosphere in Brighton.

You can’t beat the fresh air rolling in off the Channel, the surrounding beauty of the South Downs and the buzz of creativity keeping the city moving. It’s compact too, so you’re always bumping into friendly faces. All in all making it a very special place to meet.

8 - It’s social

We all know choosing the right venue for your conference, meeting or event is key. But business is also about people.

Conferences and corporate functions need to be held in places that allow participants to relax and enjoy life outside the confines of the delegate hall or meeting room. And this is where Brighton has no equal. Our city is famed (and quite rightly so) for its cosmopolitan atmosphere and vibrant nightlife. Find out more about the social side of Brighton.

9 – Culturally unique

Boutique was a word invented for Brighton.

And we’re not just talking about shops. We’ve got 100s of hotels, restaurants, galleries and clubs you won’t find anywhere else. The North Laine is the cultural hub of the city and you’ll find an award winning ‘green’ library, one of the oldest theatres in the country and the stunning Brighton Dome within moments of one another. All proudly guarding a cage culture to rival our Euro friends.

10 – Green City

Brighton is the greenest city in the UK.

And surrounded by beautiful beaches and countryside, we want to keep it that way. Once you get here everything is walkable & if you want wheels, its easy to get a bike delivered to your hotel.

You’ll also find a whopping choice of shops and restaurants specialising in sustainable produce. Buying locally is more than an option – it’s a way of life.
