Best Events In December

Things are about to get steamy this month with Forbidden Nights Male Strip Show Brighton. Catch the talented cast, from aerial to speciality acts (and their torsos), on stage before heading to VIP hotspot, Pryzm, for an after-party.

Taking place every Saturday and Sunday throughout the month, The Breakfast Club Brighton is bringing you TOASTED. This boozy offering comes with two whole hours of unlimited prosecco, mimosas, beer, and bloody marys, costing only £40 per person.

As for the food menu? Expect everything from full English or American breakfasts to pancakes with cream and berries.

If you're after things to do in Brighton in December 2025, The Secret Comedy Club is brightening up your chilly evenings with their weekly line-up of live entertainment. Expect a new headliner each time, with the same vibrant atmosphere and plenty of thirst-quenching sips at the bar.

Brighton's nightlife is in crisis, drag royalty Tayris Mongardi (of RuPaul's Drag Race fame) has lost her entire performance kit after one seriously wild night out. The wigs, the lashes, the glitter… all gone. And now, it's up to you to save the show.

Grab your mates, slip on your comfiest shoes (and maybe a touch of sequins), and embark on Brighton's Big Gay Hunt - a 90-minute, outdoor escape-room-style adventure that turns the city's streets into your stage. Using a special app and puzzle pack, you'll retrace Tayris's steps across 12 iconic LGBTQ+ landmarks, cracking clues, unlocking videos from the diva herself, and learning a little Brighton history along the way.

If you're in need of Brighton events on Saturday this December, join in on the Fun Puzzle Treasure Hunt. Use the map to explore the cobbled streets of the town, all while uncovering clues in a bid to find the X. And when you do? You'll be treated to discounted food at a boozer.

As December rolls around, Brighton is in full festive swing. Whether you fancy a treasure hunt around the city lights, boozy and bottomless karaoke brunches or to try your hand at wreath making, it's all happening right here this Christmas. 

Let's not forget the festive markets too. Everywhere from St Peter's Plaza to Richmond Square is packed with stalls serving up perfect stocking fillers, warming mulled wine and a whole load more yuletide yumminess. 

Get ready to rock your world at Lucky Voice Brighton. This place combines private karaoke rooms, a top-notch cocktail bar, and a late-night party space in one. Seven karaoke pods, each featuring a touchscreen system with over 12,000 songs, are a blast for groups of up to 20. Plus, they also have a cool cocktail speakeasy, a delicious karaoke brunch, and a live DJ on Saturday nights.

Don your finest orange jumpsuit and step inside a world of criminality and corruption at Alcotraz: Cell Block One-Three. This experience challenges you to smuggle contraband into your cell, where you'll be treated to bespoke tipples as a reward - if you don't get caught, that is...

Forget what you think you know about bingo - Bogan Bingo at Komedia takes the classic game, cranks up the volume, and sprays it with hairspray straight out of the '80s. Hosted by two mullet-sporting Aussie madmen, this long-running cult comedy show is part bingo, part rock concert, and entirely unhinged.

Expect a night of chaotic brilliance: air guitars, power ballads, appalling dance moves, and prizes that'll have you both howling and questioning reality. The room pulses with classic anthems, dodgy choreography, and pure, unfiltered fun, all held together (barely) by its hilariously offbeat hosts.

There's been a murder in Brighton, and the city's looking to you for answers. Step into the shoes of a private investigator in this outdoor, app-led adventure that turns the city into your very own crime scene. Using your phone as a guide, you'll trek through Brighton's twisting lanes, crack cryptic codes, and interrogate virtual suspects to uncover who killed the infamous politician Chester Monte.

Perfect for friends, families, or anyone with a flair for drama, the Murder Mystery Experience blends the thrill of an escape room with the buzz of city exploration. Work in teams of two to six, start whenever suits you, and race against time to solve the case before darkness falls.

Pop on your mittens and your best bobble hat for the Royal Pavilion Ice Rink. Gliding across its shimmering surface in front the Indian-inspired domes and minarets feels like a festive fever dream. 

Open every day throughout December, aside from the big one, it's perfect for a yuletide date night or full on fun day out with all the family. See you on the ice.
