Brighton Pier celebrates its 110th birthday this month with its siginificance to the city being marked by an event attended by the mighty and the great of the city!

Scott Marshall, Director of Culture & Enterprise for Brighton & Hove City Council will give an address commenting on the past, present and future of the role of culture, heritage and tourism within the city, within which Brighton Pier plays an important role.

In addition, Jeremy Brinkworth from Visit England will be the guest speaker and will offer insight into the wider role of tourism within the South East and the vital contribution cities such as Brighton and Hove offer to the local and national economy.

Anne Martin, General Manager of Brighton Pier comments:
“As a Grade 2* listed building, Brighton Pier is an integral part of Brighton’s heritage and through ongoing private investment we have developed and maintained its status as one of the leading attractions in the South East.

This event is designed to acknowledge and celebrate all that is great about Brighton as well as 110 years of the Pier. We want to continue to engage with the diverse range of businesses, groups, communities and individuals that ensure our city is one of the UK’s premier tourist destinations.”

The event which is offered in partnership with Visit Brighton, will run from 3.00-5.00pm and will feature a visual display documenting the history of the Pier as well as entertainment and refreshments.
