Silent Art Auction

If you are looking for something a bit different to do in Brighton this month, there is a Silent Art Auction happening at Sea Life Brighton on April 22, 2026. It is a fairly straightforward concept: the venue is hosting an evening dedicated to local artists, with the goal of raising funds for the SEA LIFE Trust. The event runs from 18:00 to 20:00, giving you a two-hour window to browse the work on display while exploring the aquarium.

The setting is the historic Sea Life Brighton, located right on Marine Parade, directly opposite the Brighton Pier. Since the auction takes place inside the aquarium itself, it offers a chance to see the exhibits in a slightly different context than a standard daytime visit. The organisers have framed this as a family-friendly event, noting that it is suitable for all ages, so it could be an option if you are planning an outing with kids or just want a relaxed evening activity.

Regarding the practical side of things, there is an entry fee to attend. Standard tickets for adults are priced at £16.00, while tickets for children are £12.00. Keep in mind that these prices can fluctuate, so it is worth checking the official website closer to the date if you are planning your budget. While there is no specific list of the artists or the exact pieces that will be up for auction yet, the organisers are currently inviting people to submit their own work for consideration. If you are interested in seeing what is on offer or want to know more about the submission process, the details are available through the official SEA LIFE Brighton channels.
