Forbidden Nights

If you have been looking for something a bit different for a night out in Brighton, you might have come across Forbidden Nights. It is a variety show that blends elements of circus performance with a more traditional cabaret style. The cast, which includes up to seven performers who have previously appeared on Britain's Got Talent, focuses on a mix of disciplines including aerial arts, fire acts, singing, and dance. It is essentially a structured stage show that leans into a high-energy, variety-performance format.

The upcoming show is scheduled for June 13, 2026, at Ironworks Studios, located at 30 Cheapside. Doors open at 19:30, and the performance itself begins at 20:00. It is worth noting that this is strictly an 18+ event, so you will need to bring a valid ID with you to get in. The production is designed to be interactive, and after the main stage show concludes, there is a meet and greet with the cast, followed by access to a retro-themed after-party held at Pryzm on West Street.

Tickets for the event start at £35.00. While the show is often associated with group outings like birthdays or hen parties, it is open to any adult audience. If the date on June 13 does not work for your schedule, there are several other dates throughout the summer of 2026, including June 27, July 4, July 11, July 25, August 8, August 22, and September 5. The format remains consistent across these dates, with the Ironworks Studios serving as the primary venue for the performance and Pryzm hosting the after-party. It is a straightforward setup if you are planning a night out with friends and want to know exactly where the evening is heading.
