We at Brighton Winter Fayre are deeply saddened by the tragic events in Germany. Our thoughts are with all those affected, and we stand in solidarity with their communities during this difficult time.

As many of you continue to enjoy events and festivities this weekend, we want to remind everyone to stay vigilant and prioritise safety. Moments like these remind us how important it is to come together, support one another, and remain alert.

Event organisers and venues are taking extra precautions to ensure safe and secure environments. If you’re attending an event this weekend, here are a few simple steps to keep in mind:

Be aware of your surroundings and trust your instincts.

If something feels out of place, report it to event staff or authorities.

Stay informed of entry and exit points, and follow any
guidance from security teams.

Together, we can create safe spaces to celebrate the season while keeping the well-being of others at the forefront.

Message from the team

« Having had a fantastic few days of magical entertainment and memories made, from an intimate evening with David Gedge, to Barrioke’s Christmas Hits, and from the Quiffiest of Bingos to the wonder of creative workshops, we are sadly unable to complete our programme of events.

Our sincere thanks go to our fantastic staff and volunteers, and the amazing support received from our stakeholders.

A special thanks is extended to the wonderful people of Brighton who visited us in their thousands, and showed the true spirit of the Festive Season.

We’re very sad to be shutting our doors earlier than planned, but we hope everyone understands that safety comes first’

We’ve made efforts to find alternative venues for our scheduled shows, but unfortunately, we couldn’t secure anything on such short notice. All ticket holders will be contacted directly and refunded over the coming days.

Thank you for joining us this year and we hope to see you at future events!
