Stand or Fall Screening

As Brighton and Hove Albion marks its 125th anniversary, the club has organised a series of events to reflect on its history, including a screening of the official documentary, Stand or Fall: The Remarkable Rise of Brighton and Hove Albion. This particular showing is set for 15 April 2026 at Concorde II on Madeira Drive. The film tracks the club’s trajectory over 26 years, starting from the precarious position of nearly being relegated from the Football League in 1997 and ending with their recent qualification for European football. It is a look back at the challenges and shifts that have defined the team’s modern era, presented in a venue that is a staple of the Brighton seafront.

The documentary has a runtime of 1 hour and 35 minutes and features a mix of footballing figures and well-known supporters. You will see appearances from Gary Lineker and Alan Shearer, as well as local perspectives from Norman Cook, better known as Fatboy Slim. Club chairman Tony Bloom and chief executive Paul Barber also provide insight into the internal workings and decisions that shaped the club's rise. For those who might find the Brighton date difficult to attend, there is an alternative screening scheduled for 2 April 2026 at The Connaught in Worthing, providing another opportunity to see the film in a cinema setting before the club’s larger anniversary festival takes place in June.

Regarding the practical side of things, while the specific pricing for the Concorde II event hasn't been updated in the most recent club details, previous screenings of the same film at the Amex Stadium were set at £15 for adults and £12 for those under 18 or over 65. The event is designed to be accessible for fans and families alike, fitting into the broader 125-year celebrations. It is a chance to see the story of the club’s survival and growth told through the voices of those who were there, right in the heart of the city.
