What's on in Brighton & Hove

Your Brighton events calendar

Brighton & Hove rarely gives you much chance to say there’s nothing on.

There’s always something you somehow hear about a little too late: a pop-up handing out the best falafel you’ve ever tasted, a run club your secret crush went to that you only spotted on Instagram the next day, or a poetry slam happening two streets away. Then the vintage market’s back this weekend, and somehow everyone else already knows which DJ is playing where.

That’s where we come in. Discover major festivals alongside tiny gigs, markets, workshops, comedy, community events and the wonderfully random things that keep popping up across Brighton & Hove.

See what’s happening today, make plans for the weekend or get something in the diary for later.
