Nice venue. It’s a shame that the staff are not very enthusiastic. Having worked a shift here, the management have a lot to learn about running the venue.

I went with a group of girlfriends as part of a Groupon deal. We had a 3 course dinner with a cocktail and the evenings cabaret which was very entertaining with belly dancers, to a live band with dancing. Our groupon deal cost £26 each and was good value for money. Not sure if I would pay full price of £54 which was advertised at the time. Some people seemed to make an effort and come in fancy dress, or maybe thats how they normally dress on a Friday night?!! Its a great place to people watch, but does get very full and claustrophobic at the end of the night, which I personally didn’t like. But overall, a great night out.

Have been to Brighton Ballroom several times and literally had a ball(sorry) every time. On my birthday last year we had a blast — we were treated to a really fab floorshow with a brill Rat Pack singer, and awesome diva stylee singer whose name escapes me but would’ve bought her CD on the spot if she’d had one. A few burlesque strippers put their cherries on the cake. Great eve was had by all. Being one for dressing up(along with my female impersonator friend), this place hits it running, it’s probably the only venue in Brighton I’m happy to wear my wigs, my vintage togs and accessories and feel part of the furniture. Please, please can’t we have more glam venues like the BB in boring, grotty Brighton? Not everyone wants to slob around in grungy bars that haven’t been cleaned in years… with loos to match! Or slum it in SoNo(SOuth of NOrth St)!!! Way to go BB, I love you… looking forward to the next Margot’s Party and possibly the Tusk & Garter Club too.
