Brighton gay scene
Brighton is one of the most trendy cities in the UK for same-sex attracted travellers, known as the gay capital of the South (rivalling London) so it’s no surprise that there are many amazing gay bars in Brighton to choose from!
Whether you prefer a gay pub, homosexual bar, gay club or gay cruising club, Brighton has something for everyone.
The majority of same-sex attracted bars in Brighton are all within walking distance of each other (much like in Manchester, the gay capital of the North!) centred around the gay area of Brighton also established as the homosexual village of Brighton. We found that on a bedtime out in Brighton, the entire Gay spectrum was represented, more so than many other places we have been!
