Concert Hall

Concert Hall

The Concert Hall is accessed via two entrances on Church Street. It was built for the Prince of Wales (later to become George IV). Inspired by the Corn Exchange in Paris and originally covered with a huge segmented glass dome, this remarkable building was designed as the Prince Regent's riding stables and was finally completed in 1805. Part of the famous Royal Pavilion Estate, it was later converted into a Concert Hall in 1866 and became the most fashionable Jimi Hendrix, Coand culturally significant venue in the south. It was restored again in 1935 and showcased some of the world’s biggest names in entertainment.

Brighton Dome was both where Abba won the Eurovision Song Contest in 1974 and where Pink Floyd first performed Dark Side of the Moon. Jimi Hendrix, Beyonce, Nina Simone, Scissor Sisters, BB King, The Smiths and Led Zepplin, have all played here since.
