You can always rely on The Breakfast Club for Brighton events this weekend in July. Make your way inside from 1pm for two hours of unlimited Kentucky-style boozy iced tea or beer, alongside a brekky dish. Think pancake stacks drizzled in maple and eggs galore.

If you're after rooftop views, cool DJ sets, and lively weekend brunches, The Mesmerist in Brighton is bringing the heat all July long. Nestled in the Lanes, this multi-floor hotspot is serving up something for every vibe - whether you're grooving to The Fabulous Red Diesel, skanking to Rum & Bass, or sipping prosecco at their popular bottomless brunch (every Saturday from £28).

Expect everything from soul and funk to reggae, disco, and house, spread across rooftop parties, terrace takeovers, and late-night dance sessions. With standout events like King L's Roof Party, Get FNKD, Myriad., and the soulful Soulshyne Roof Party, July is stacked with free-entry nights and high-energy weekends.

Get ready to drink some tipples in the clink at Alcotraz: Cell Block One-Three. This immersive cocktail experience will have you sneaking liquor past the warden and befriending crooked guards, who will then use your booze to make bespoke concoctions in a cell.

Hosting a summer edition of their popular event, the Sounds Familiar Music Quiz is coming to Horizon this July. This is much more than your standard quiz, and they've played Glastonbury more times than David Bowie.

Get stuck into rounds packed full of non-stop tunes, from power ballads to indie bangers and guilty pleasures, putting your skills to the test.

Head to The Tempest, Brighton's legendary beachfront playground tucked beneath the seafront arches. By day, it's the perfect spot for soaking up the sun with a cocktail on their iconic terrace - but by night, this venue transforms into a pulsating network of cave-like spaces filled with basslines, energy, and serious underground vibes.
