Friday Nights at Black Lion

Friday Nights at Black Lion is the Black Lion's own club night, and it's running every Friday through the end of the summer and well into autumn. The next one is this Friday 7 August, and it's just one of a long stretch: it goes on the 14th, 21st and 28th of August, then continues through September on the 4th, 11th, 18th and 25th, and finally into October on the 2nd, 9th and 16th. If you're looking for something to do on a Friday night in Brighton, you've got plenty of dates to choose from over the next few months.

As for what to expect, the music is the main thing. The programme ranges across House and R&B to Disco and UKG, so it's not tied to one particular sound. The venue describes the aim as straightforward: keeping the dancefloor full and the drinks flowing. It's a club night run by the venue itself, rather than a visiting promoter, so it's their own regular on the calendar. If you're into those styles, it's a good one to keep in the back of your mind for whenever your Friday night opens up.

Entry is free, and that includes queue-jump access, though there's no guarantee of entry if the place is at capacity, so it's worth getting there a bit earlier if you want to be sure of getting in. It's an over-18s night, so you'll need ID on you. You'll find the Black Lion at 14 Black Lion Street, Brighton, BN1 1ND, with the music kicking off at 22:00.
