Brighton Dome Foyer
Offering the very best in local drink and dripping with contemporary cool, the Foyer bar remains the place to soak up that pre-gig atmosphere.
With its high glass ceilings and open plan design, the Foyer is a wonderfully bright space during the day, but we like it best at night - when the buzz of the crowd really helps to set the mood.
The bar is open 45 minutes before evening performances. Our bars take card payments and cash at some tills.
Also located in the Foyer, our café & alcohol-free service point serves a selection of teas and coffee to enjoy with delicious cakes and snacks.
Gallery Bar
Step back in time in our newly refurbished Gallery Bar
In the Gallery Bar, the Corn Exchange’s original purpose as a riding house has been used as the inspiration for decoration. The space features Regency colours and motifs plus name carvings remembering each of the Prince Regent’s horses. A spectacular sculpture by West Sussex-based artist Graham Heeley is suspended in the atrium, inspired by a painting of one of the Prince’s favourite horses, Nonpareil. On the wall, more historic images recall the venue’s time as a riding house and an interactive digital timeline, from SquintOpera, allows visitors to explore Brighton Dome’s heritage from the 1800s to the present day.
You can visit our Gallery Bar and learn about our history during the day on days when the Welcome area is open.
In the evening, the bar is open 45 minutes before a performance. Our bars take card payments and cash at some tills.
Festival Bar
A contemporary space inspired by Brighton Festival
In the Festival Bar a more contemporary era of Brighton Dome’s history is celebrated, with wallpaper taking its inspiration from the poster for the first Brighton Festival, which took place in 1967. The poster’s unique ‘eye’ motif is combined with imagery from artist Mike McInnerney, who has also designed album covers for The Who. The Who formed part of the 1967 Festival line up, headlining a performance in Brighton Dome’s Concert Hall that also included Eric Clapton’s Cream, among others.
In the evening, the Festival bar is open 45 minutes before a performance. Our bars take card payments and cash at some tills.
