Vibrant, colourful, fun and free, Brighton offers the energy of the city and freedom of the sea. It really is unique.
From the exoticism of the Royal Pavilion to the record-breaking i360, check out our Top 10 ‘must sees' attractions for a taste of what makes Brighton & Hove stand out from the crowd…
Brighton Palace Pier
A stunning example of a Victorian pleasure pier, this is traditional seaside fun at its very best. Fish & chips, candy floss, rides for thrill seekers and the infamous stripy deckchairs!
Royal Pavilion
The Prince Regent’s original pleasure palace, you don’t get much more bonkers than this. Transformed by John Nash in the early 1800s, the Pavilion is one of the most dazzling & exotic buildings in the British Isles.
British Airways i360
The country's newest attraction glides visitors 162 metres high for breathtaking 360 degree views of Brighton & Hove - the city, coast & countryside. The i360 was officially named the Most Slender Tower by Guiness World Records in January 2016.
