Fair Play Venue WaterBear Venue A 150 capacity space on Brighton's iconic seafront, hosting a range of live events and showcases. Brighton 169- 170 Kings Road Arches, Brighton, BN1 1NB How to book a gig? Venue Information: waterbear.org.uk/ Tel: 01273 726230 On social media: Find us on Google Maps Accessibility: The only part of the venue accessible by wheelchair is the reception space at the front, as the main bar and stage/audience areas can only be accessed by a set of stairs. Significant modification to the venue would be required to provide full wheelchair access, for example, the installation of a wheelchair lift and an accessible toilet on the lower level. Moving between the archways liinking the bar area and stage/audience area presents no issue currently, as they are wide enough for easy access. Access from street level down to the front of the venue is via a slope. Brighton council has informed us that due to the gradient of the slope it is not fully DDA compliant. However, the gradient is not too great so as to prevent significant risk to wheelchair users. Accepts MU Access Rider We host a range of events in our 150 capacity space, including live gigs, club nights, jam nights, open mics and various other events and showcases. We are also an official venue for The Great Escape Festival. We also work with Brighton Fringe operating as a bookable space for hundreds of creatives to perform their creative and unique shows. Included at the venue is a professional Funktion One PA system, fully licensed bar and state-of-the-art music performance equipment. What we're looking for New music and emerging artists to perform their shows. How to book a gig?
