-

Best things to do in Brighton

Explore Brighton Palace Pier



You can't get much more of the British seaside experience than eating fresh fish and chips at the end of Brighton Pier and partaking in some of the entertainment... with fairground rides, bars and restaurants stretching out into the sea. Brighton Palace Pier has a lot to offer. 

Take in immense sea views from the British Airways i360


Some might see it as a bit of an eyesore, but the views from this 150-metre-high observation tower are impressive. You can see pretty much all of Brighton!

Book to see the Lady boys of Bangkok 


Lady boys Flight of Fantasy Tour 2021 - the showgirls are Back! After postponing last year, we've rescheduled, and The Lady Boys of Bangkok will be touching down with their most sensational show yet for 2021! The first stop will be at Brighton as part of Brighton Fringe on May 28.

See world treasures at Brighton Museum & Art Gallery


Brighton Museum & Art Gallery is located in the Royal Pavilion garden, at the heart of the city’s cultural quarter. This city-centre museum and gallery is free for locals, while visitors are charged £5.20. Given the treasures on show – from fine art and ancient Egypt to 20th-century design fashion to exhibitions from contemporary artists we’d say this a must to visit.

Discover the spectacular Sea Life Brighton

The SeaLife centre in Brighton is in the world’s oldest operating aquarium! Originally opened as Brighton Aquarium in 1872, the attraction was bought by Sea Life in 1991.

Visit the Grand Royal Pavilion


The Royal Pavilion is an exotic palace in the centre of Brighton with a colourful history. Don’t miss: A secret tunnel in the building links the Pavillion to Brighton Dome. While you can’t see it on the standard tour, special tours of the tunnel and basement run on selected dates.

Get your culture fix with Brighton Dome


A huge performance venue. You can expect a night of classical music, dance, theatre, and poetry.

Explore shopping in the Lanes


Today theseries of twisting alleyways are home to antique stores, jewellers, and designer boutiques. The square on East Street is a great spot for a delicious al fresco meal accompanied by some live jazz.

KempTown - Get to know Brighton’s queer history on an LGBTQ+ walking tour


Rainbow flags fly proudly in Brighton, arguably the LGBTQ+ capital of the UK. Since the 18th century Brighton has become a cosmopolitan place of recreation, escape, and freedom.

Eat out at the Regency Restaurant


It is one of the oldest and most popular seafront restaurants, offering its customers quality and value for money since the 1930's. With good quality food, generous portions, reasonable prices, spectacular sea views and cheerful atmosphere, it is no wonder that the restaurant has won national acclaim.

A brief history of clowns to celebrate Andreea's birthday!

-
Image
Hip hip hooray! It’s our crazy clown Andreea’s birthday! The lovable Andreea has been appearing in shows with Gandeys Circus for nearly a decade. Now Andreea is actually French – so perhaps we should say ‘bon anniversaire’! We’re proud to have Andreea as part of our current team in the big top at Butlin’s Skegness . While our other clowns – currently performing at Butlin’s Bognor Regis and Minehead – Bippo and Chico Rico are more traditional, Andreea opts to show off her sense of style with an offbeat modern look. We think her pink tutu / Converse / blazer combo is pretty iconic… especially paired with her blasting boombox! (she’s never been shy of making an entrance). Andreea likes interrupting the action with her silly routines. And you know something else… she is the UK’s only female clown! So you could say she’s a bit of an innovator when it comes to clowning around. With that in mind, let’s look at how much clowns have changed ov

200 BC – 200 AD – Han Dynasty, Sichuan Province – Juggler with balls and knives – Carving, stone of the “Hundred Games.” [source: Chinese Acrobatics Through The Ages, p15] The origins of the Chinese circus are not entirely crystal clear. There are debates and differing opinions when it comes to the exact history behind the circus, which is not a surprise when you take into account how long it has been around! First records of the Chinese circus - including carvings and mural paintings - date back more than 2,000 years to the Warring States period (475–221 BC), with evidence of performances developing further during the Qin and Han Dynasties (221 BC - 230 AD). Although it is believed that the art may have actually started around 3,000 years ago! One theory is that the acts originated in imperial courts, with performers entertaining the houses in a manner similar to western court jesters. However, it is more likely that the circus was a folk art that was later adopted by

In honour of International Women's Day and the 'Women in Circus' movement, we would like to share these photos of strong women with whom we have worked - past and present. Women who inspire us here at Gandey World Class Productions , and who influence and empower other women across the world. There are many strong circus women who we have not mentioned here. Please be aware that this list is by no means definitive – there are so many more strong women whom we would have loved to include, and who remain an important part of the Gandey family. The pictures can also be found in a Flickr album here .
