Brighton Festival is an annual celebration of music, theatre, dance, circus, art, film, literature, debate, outdoor and family events. The festival takes place in venues both familiar and unusual across Brighton & Hove for three weeks every May.
It really is a great time to visit Brighton. It’s one of Europe’s biggest arts festivals and includes hundreds of events from exhibitions to live music. Though many shows and events are ticketed, you will come across a number of free shows provided too. Even just wandering around the city at this time of year is entertaining, with street performers and music on every corner.
