Brighton has long had a reputation for being a deliciously rakish and stylishly, shamelessly hedonistic and today the city by the sea still fizzes with energy all year round. It's all in the mix of seaside charm and chic city cool with a world-famous heritage and culture, seriously good shopping, sparkling nightlife and a hyperactive arts scene.

Don't miss the exotic Royal Pavillion, seaside fantasy palace of King George IV. Stroll along the vibrant Beachfront with its Artists' and Fishing Quarters, bears and clubs. Enjoy traditional seaside fun against the backdrop of Regency achitecture and the Victorian Palace Pier. Shop for antiques and designer goods in the 17th century Lanes, browse for bargains in the bohemian North Laine or go discount shopping among the yachts at the Marina.

Add to that some of the best nightlife outside London, a lively arts scene, a wide range of places to stay, over 400 restaurants, and a non-stop programme of special events throughout the year, including England's largest international arts festival in May, and you have a fantastic City, bromming with glamour and excitement.
