A joyful live gig for families featuring music, nature, fun, and a kids' open mic at Brighton Fringe.
The Brighton Fringe calendar for this year includes the Go Kid Music Club’s 'Animal Jam', scheduled for Sunday, 17 May 2026. The event takes place at the Tivoli Spiegeltent, located in the Spiegel Gardens within Victoria Gardens North. This venue, known for its circular wooden structure and distinct pop-up design, sits in the heart of the Old Steine, near St. Peter’s Church. It is designed as a live music session specifically for primary school-aged children and their families, following a similar programme held last year.

The performance features Al Start and her Beastie Band, focusing on songs inspired by animals and the natural world. The session incorporates a mix of live music, storytelling, and musical games. A notable part of the programme is the 'Kids' Open Mic', where children are invited to take the stage to perform. Attendees are encouraged to wear animal costumes or bring along a favourite stuffed toy to fit the theme of the day. Additionally, there is a free, themed art activity available for children to participate in during the event, providing a creative element alongside the musical performances.
Regarding the logistics, tickets are priced at £8.50 for both adults and children. For those attending in a group of four, the price is £29, which represents a saving compared to individual tickets. Children aged two and under can attend for free if they are sitting on an adult's lap, and there are also concessions available for Compass Card holders. Given the nature of these events, it is common for tickets to be purchased in advance to ensure availability. The environment is intended to be relaxed and inclusive, allowing families to participate in the music and activities together within the Spiegeltent setting. It serves as a space for children to engage with live performance in a setting that is tailored to their age group, while the venue itself provides a specific backdrop for the Brighton Fringe programme.
