Backstage Tour at Christmas

Wed 23 Oct 2019

Join us for a mince pie and a glass of mulled wine as you discover more about Brighton Dome.

Did you know that our Concert Hall used to be the stables for the Prince Regent’s horses? Or that Brighton Dome hosted ABBA's victory in the 1974 Eurovision Song Contest with Waterloo? This is your chance to take a peek behind the curtain, follow in the footsteps of legends such as Stevie Wonder, Jimi Hendrix, Beyoncé and David Bowie, catch a rare glimpse of the entrance to the infamous Royal Pavilion tunnel, and discover some of the more surprising roles our iconic venue has played in history and how we use the spaces today.

 

Access
