Brighton has so much in store for you, from music bars to a wide assortment of food establishments that you won’t have to worry about being away from the city. All you need are your bags and a sense of adventure, and you’re all set to visit this little gem by the sea.

Brighton has come a long way from the once sleepy fishing village it was in the past. Nowadays, you’ll find Brighton beach swarming with tourists, especially during the summer months.

Brighton hosts an amazing arts festival each year so if you want to experience that, make sure you book your trip for sometime around May. The Brighton festival has a great line up of different events like art shows, music performances and walking tours that will surely pique the curiosity of tourists of all ages. Don’t miss the chance to go to some of the local artists’ “open houses” during the festival for a glimpse of their own artwork. If you want to see the biggest lesbian gay bisexual and transgender pride festival in Britain, you should drop by for the annual Brighton Pride festival, which is usually held around the last week of July to the first week of August.

One of the main reasons that you should visit Brighton is for the shopping experience. But try not to get stuck shopping around the Western Road as the Laines can offer you a wide array of different interesting and unique products that you won’t be able to find elsewhere. North Laine is a shopping Mecca for people who are looking for quirky and vintage items so if you have something particular in mind, be sure to scour the stalls patiently.

So there you have it. Come experience Brighton’s unique flavor for yourself. But be sure to come around the summer season since it’s the best time for you to soak up some Brighton sun.
