The doors open at 12:00 PM, giving people time to settle in before the match kicks off at 21:00. Since this is an 18+ event, you will need to keep that age restriction in mind if you are planning to head down with a group. The setup is designed to handle the crowd with both indoor and outdoor viewing options, which is useful given the unpredictable nature of Brighton weather.
Regarding access, the entry is free, though the venue offers tickets for priority access via their online system. These priority tickets are intended to help manage the queue, but it is worth noting that they do not guarantee entry if the pub reaches its full capacity. If you prefer to have a bit more certainty about getting in, booking through their online platform is the recommended route to secure that priority status before the day of the match.
