About

The spectacular seaside palace of the Prince Regent (George IV) transformed by John Nash between 1815 and 1823 into one of the most dazzling and exotic buildings in the British Isles.

The Royal Pavilion houses furniture and works of art including original pieces lent by HM The Queen and a magnificent display of Regency silver-gilt. The Royal Pavilion Tearoom, with its fabulous balcony, overlooks the Pavilion gardens, which have also been returned to their original Regency splendour.

Residents of Brighton & Hove can enjoy half price admission to the Royal Pavilion all year with proof of identity.

Audio guides in a variety of languages are available and cost £2. Visually impaired tours and British Sign Language tours are available also. Educational tours for school parties

You can now buy a joint ticket to visit two of Brighton’s most iconic and unique historic buildings. Buy a History Pass for reduced entry to The Royal Pavilion and Brighton Museum. Ideal for families planning a weekend of history exploring, or as a unique gift, the History Pass is your ticket to a whole world of amazing objects and Regency wonders.
