Seaside Location
We can’t speak highly enough of this vibrant seaside location. Brighton balances the traditional with the obscure, from fish and chips on the pier to some of the UKs best drag performers, this destination has everything and more. The food scene is legendary as is the bar and club scene, the only problem is you may not want to go home once the weekend is over. Everyone falls in love with this vibrant inclusive city
Getting around
The city centre is fairly compact and easily walkable, although comfy shoes are recommended! There is also a Beryl Bike scheme in the city and in our opinion there’s nothing quite like cycling along the seafront down to Brighton Marina, or up to Hove lawns on a sunny day. The bikes cost just £1 to unlock and then cost from 8p a minute to hire. You can leave them at any bike station when you’ve had enough peddling. Speaking of Brighton Marina, there’s also the Volks Railway, a cute mini train that runs from the Brighton Zip Wire every 15 minutes. The bus service is also extremely reliable with routes across the whole city and beyond. Gatwick airport is approximately 30 minutes away and the Gatwick Express rail service runs every 30 minutes direct to Brighton. Perfect commute times for any overseas hens.
Tips and ideas
The city has many unique areas to explore during your hen weekend and we have put together a handy guide to help you navigate this gorgeous destination
At Churchill Square you will find high street giants such as Primark, Zara, H&M, M&S and Flannels here, Churchill Square is the commercial part of town and great for brand shopping. There are also many food vendors and pubs in the area.
West Street is where you will find Wetherspoons, Pryzm, MaGGIE Mays, Revolution, Walkabout and many fast food shops! This street is the go-to place for stag and hen parties looking for a typical rowdy night on the town. Most venues close at 4am along the street.
The North and South Laines are one of Brighton’s biggest selling points are the Laines. Bursting with independent, quirky shops selling vintage clothes, diamonds, vinyl, soft furnishings, artwork and more, you and the girls can spend many an hour wandering through these (mostly) pedestrianised streets shopping and visiting the many bars and eateries.
The Brighton Pavilion is Brighton’s most iconic buildings, given to Queen Victoria by her uncle King George IV in the 1700s, the building has enjoyed many incarnations since, including being a war hospital. You can now pay for a guided tour and the music room in particular is showstopping.
Visit the Seafront, what will you do first? Will it be a walk along the Palace Pier for fair rides and fish and chips? Or a flight on the Brighton i360 for the best panoramic view of the city? Whether it’s eating delicious food on the beach or enjoying the live music and cocktails in the many bars along the strip. Now that’s our idea of a great day out…
