The Idles performing at Brighton Dome Concert hall to a full audience

Concerts and Performances

Everything you can imagine, imagine it with us.

Where better to present your performance than one of the South East’s most iconic and diverse venues

Death-defying circus acts got us out of our seats, Yungblud’s raw, raucous energy had us jumping, then Tim Peake took us into space. It was just another Autumn in Brighton Dome’s Concert Hall.

Now, with the welcome return of our Corn Exchange and Studio Theatre, Brighton Dome is uniquely equipped to host performances of all sizes, all year round. Intimate new writing, mind-bending modern dance, auditorium swelling orchestra - we have a space for it all. 

Work with our skilled in-house production team in our flexible venues to bring your event to life, and make it the best it could be.

Everything you can imagine, imagine it with us.
