Brighton City Highlights

If you have been looking for a way to see a different side of Brighton, the upcoming Brighton City Highlights tour might be worth a look. Running from June 1st to June 14th, 2026, this walking tour is part of the City Uncovered: Brighton series. It is designed to take people through some of the less conventional spots in the city, focusing on hidden lanes, local art districts, and the creative side of the area rather than the usual tourist trail.

The tour starts at the Church of Saint Bartholomew on Ann Street, which serves as the meeting point. From there, the route moves through the New England district, where you can see street art, independent galleries, and examples of Victorian architecture. The walk continues into the North Laine area, known for its cobbled streets, alternative culture, and independent boutiques. After passing by the Pavilion Gardens and the Royal Pavilion, the tour concludes in The Lanes, an area well-known for its antique shops and craft stores. The experience wraps up with a light meal featuring locally sourced food.

There are two time slots available each day for those interested in joining: a morning session at 10:00 and an afternoon session running from 13:30 to 15:30. Since this is a ticketed event, you will need to book your spot online in advance if you plan to attend. It is a straightforward way to spend a few hours exploring the city's architecture and local culture if you have the time during those two weeks in June.
