Exhibitions in Brighton

From museums and art galleries to the seafront and other outdoor spaces almost anywhere can become an exhibition space in the creative city of Brighton & Hove.

The city's major exhibitions are held at the Brighton Museum & Art Gallery which has a variety of permanent displays as well as big, thought-provoking, and often challenging, temporary exhibitions. The Royal Pavilion; Hove Museum and Preston Manor also host regular exhibitions and the permanent displays at the Booth Museum are always a firm family favourite.

Brighton is also home to several independent art galleries such as Fabrica which is housed in a former church and Cameron Contemporary Art in Hove. Sports fans will love the exhibitions at the Albion Museum and the Sussex Cricket Museum.
