Charles Street


Most Happening Gay Club
8 Marine Parade
Brighton, Sussex BN2 1TA
United Kingdom
+12 7 362 4091
If you're gay and beautiful, then this is the place for you. Recently opened, Charles Street has fast become a popular hangout. Trendy and chic define this centrally located bar's interiors. People stop by through the day for some groovy cocktails or a quick bite to eat. Downstairs, its sister club, Pool, is another one of Brighton's happening clubs.

Gemini Beach Bar


Beach party time
127-132 King's Road Arches
Brighton, East Sussex BN1 2FN
United Kingdom
Set under the Arches right next to the beach, Gemini's is one of the many bars/clubs jostling for attention from large groups of twenty-something students and party crowds that congregate in Brighton each weekend. Like many of its local counterparts, Gemini's is all about garage and hard house - so if your cup of tea edges more towards disco - look elsewhere! Bottled beers and ready-mixed alcoholic drinks are most popular with the clientele - presumably as dancing with a glass of wine or pint of beer requires much better balancing skills. Snacks are also available for the hungry party-goer. Prices are reasonable and in line with most of the competition, with bottled beers just over the £2-mark.

Komedia


Laugh your head off
Gardner Street
(North Laine)
Brighton, East Sussex BN1 1UN
United Kingdom
+44 1273 647100
http://www.komedia.co.uk
Komedia is a popular haunt that presents comedy, theatre, workshops and live music. The Krater Comedy Club takes place every Saturday and Sunday evening and presents a line-up of established and new comedians. There are two shows on Saturday, the later one is always a bit more raucous, but either is always a great night out. More informal performances are presented on Sunday. Ticket prices and show times vary; call for details. There is a fine restaurant, "Curve," on the ground floor for a pre-show meal.

Meeting Place


Sea, sun and sandwiches
Kings Rd.
Brighton, East Sussex BN1 1NA
United Kingdom
+44 1273 738391
The Meeting Place is an open air cafe that is perfect for a drink or bite to eat after a seafront stroll, so it's no surprise that it is frequented by many visitors and residents of the town. All food and drink is reasonably priced: choose from tea, coffee, hot chocolate with whipped cream, snacks, ices and a delicious selection of homemade cakes. Although the cafe is quite roomy, expect crowds, especially on a Sunday when local people meet up for a coffee and a chat.

Theatre Royal


Mainstream theatre venue
New Road
(North Laine)
Brighton, East Sussex BN1 1SD
United Kingdom
+44 1273 32 8488
Perhaps Brighton's grandest theatre, this old style palace (1,000 seats) puts on the big touring plays, shows and musicals. The lush interior features lots of mahogany and red velvet, putting you in a luxurious mood for the West End fare—from the best in Shakespeare to panto. There is a bar the size of a hotel lobby. Step next door to Colonnade Bar for more opulence and walls festooned with shots of the stars. Ticket prices vary per performance, call or check web site for details.
