Harlem Globetrotters

The Harlem Globetrotters are heading to the Brighton Centre on Thursday, 5 March 2026, as part of their world tour marking a century since the team was founded. Since 1926, this group has been a fixture in basketball history, eventually being inducted into the Naismith Memorial Basketball Hall of Fame. They are widely credited with bringing moves like the jump shot, the slam dunk, and the half-court hook shot into the mainstream. The upcoming performance in Brighton is designed to showcase these iconic skills alongside their usual mix of tricks and slams. The venue on Kings Road will be set up with a specific seating plan to accommodate the court-side nature of the show.

The schedule for the evening is quite specific. Doors are set to open at 18:30, and the main performance begins at 19:30. For those interested in the 'Celebrity Court Pass' experience, registration for that part of the evening happens at 18:45. The show itself is expected to finish at 21:05, but the team usually stays for an autograph session immediately following the final whistle. Because the Brighton Centre is located at BN1 2GR, it is roughly a ten-minute walk from the main train station, making it accessible for those coming from outside the city centre.

Regarding tickets, the general sale starts on 27 June 2025 at 12:00. There is a booking limit of six tickets per person to manage demand. While final pricing is often confirmed closer to the sale date, there is a standard £1.50 processing fee per order, and management fees are typically included in the total shown on platforms like Eventim. This is an all-ages event, though the venue requires anyone under 14 to be accompanied by an adult. For those with specific accessibility needs, the building is wheelchair accessible, and there is a direct contact number, 01273 292 695, for handling disability-related bookings and enquiries.
