Brighton Centre information researched on 7 October 2026; older price figures remain labelled by year.

The arena

The Brighton Centre sits on Kings Road facing the seafront. The beach is outside; walk-ons fill the room.

The venue confirms 18:00 doors on 1 April. Ticketmaster lists an 18:30 event time, but neither checked page identifies that as first dart.

Use doors for the arrival plan and watch the official listing for the playing schedule.

The overview explains the seven-match knockout. For walk-ons and songs, try the first-night guide; the session guide compares longer trips.

Seats, screens and the Family Area

This is seating only. Use the booking map for floor and raised categories; we favour the floor for a social group.

Every under-18 must sit in the Family Area with an adult. That's the current darts rule, stronger than a general venue age policy.

Put the whole family in the right booking category from the start.

Public areas are wheelchair accessible except the East and West Balconies. Lifts and viewing platforms serve other suitable positions.

The quieter Russell Road entrance provides a rear approach, and ground-floor Changing Places is available.

Book accessible and companion places through the venue's Ticketmaster route or discuss them on 01273 292695.

Hearing support uses Sennheiser MobileConnect, and assistance dogs are welcome. Settle the route and viewing position together before buying.

Getting there and home

The venue gives ten minutes on foot from Brighton station. Head down Queens Road towards the Clock Tower, continue along West Street and turn right on the seafront.

Keep Kings Road, Brighton BN1 2GR saved on your phone.

We'd allow 15–20 minutes for the return uphill after the show, as a crowd-and-walking margin rather than an official journey time.

Pool Valley coach station is five minutes away, while Churchill Square is the nearest main bus-stop area.

Use Southern or Thameslink for 1 April returns. The centre's usual 23:00 curfew is useful context, but the 2027 darts finish isn't published.

Don't book a connection that needs you outside instantly.

There is no on-site car park. Churchill Square One's lowest level is the closest accessible parking option, and Regency Square is another nearby council car park.

Blue Badge bays are also listed on West Street and Cannon Place.

Tickets for the seafront night

Tickets are showing low availability at Ticketmaster (official seller, checked 8 November 2026).

General sale opened at noon on 22 October 2026, after PDCTV Annual Members (19 October) and PDC and venue pre-sales (20 October).

In 2026 seats cost £40–£70 plus fees; 2027 prices show on the official booking page.

Mobile tickets use a moving barcode, so screenshots won't admit you. Ticketmaster Exchange is the centre's named face-value return route.

Follow the official booking links, with the resale guide beside you if plans change.

Families, bags and fancy dress

Take a small bag within 21 × 30 × 19cm.

The £3-per-item cloakroom serves standing and selected other events; confirm availability for your darts session.

Leave bottles, including reusable ones, and outside food behind; discuss medical refreshments with security or the Duty Manager.

The children's guide helps plan the noise and supervision as well as the seat.

Football colours are prohibited for darts. Weapons, flares, lasers and glow sticks aren't allowed, and general banners larger than A3 are barred.

A promoter can restrict banners further.

Food outlets and bars accept Visa and Mastercard rather than cash or American Express. Merchandise and the information desk can take cash or those cards.

Pack the right payment method instead of assuming the whole building follows one rule.

There is no re-admittance. Threatening behaviour, drunkenness or refusal of a search can mean ejection without refund.

Challenge 25 applies to alcohol, and adults cannot buy drinks for under-18s. The fancy-dress page covers practical group themes.

Four nearby places to eat or drink

Book the main meal ahead of the doors. The Walrus publishes its kitchen cutoff; the other three don't give a separate local last-order time, so settle that when booking.

  • The Walrus: pub food and sharing plates on Ship Street. Thursday noon–midnight, with kitchen noon–21:30. A possible later drink after an earlier meal.
  • The Bright Helm: a budget pub stop on West Street. Thursday 08:00–01:00; the chain's usual main food hours are 11:30–23:00, as a chain guide.
  • The Coal Shed: steak and fire cooking at its current North Street address. Thursday noon–midnight; use it for a booked meal before entry, not a presumed midnight kitchen.
  • Shelter Hall: seven independent kitchens under one seafront roof, useful when friends want different dishes. Thursday 11:30–23:00; kitchens run independently.
