RNB MANIA Brighton's R&B Festival

If you have been looking for plans for early September, RNB MANIA is returning to Brighton for its second edition. The event, titled RNB MANIA Brighton's R&B Festival, is scheduled for Saturday, 5th September 2026. It will be hosted at Quarters, a venue that will serve as the backdrop for this day of music focused on R&B hits from the 90s and 2000s.

The festival is set to run from 15:00 to 21:00. The musical selection for this edition highlights tracks from artists such as Usher, Ashanti, Destiny's Child, Ciara, Aaliyah, TLC, Nelly, Missy Elliott, Drake, Lauryn Hill, Chris Brown, and Michael Jackson. Given the nature of the brand's previous events, it is worth noting that this is an 18+ event, so you will need to keep that in mind if you are planning to attend with friends.

Regarding the logistics, the current status of ticket pricing is listed as 'TBC' on the official Visit Brighton site, and other platforms are currently showing the event as 'off sale' or with zero pricing, which suggests that the ticketing process is still being finalised or has not yet opened to the public. Since this is the second time the event has come to the seaside, it follows a similar format to previous iterations of the brand's national tour. It is a straightforward setup for anyone who enjoys this specific era of R&B and wants to spend a Saturday afternoon in the city centre.
