The Nightingale 12-16th December at Brighton Dome!

The Nightingale

A family Christmas treat!

Not all that glitters is gold in this festive revival of Hans Christian Andersen’s classic fairy tale.

When a selfish king replaces his melodic songbird with an all-mod-cons mechanical gizmo, he soon begins to wonder whether something might be missing from his life…

Told with a mesmerising mix of puppetry, masks, animation and performance, the latest production from Horse + Bamboo (Red Riding Hood; Storm in a Teacup) is a timely reminder of the true values of the Christmas season – love, friendship and the priceless joy of simple pleasures.

During a career spanning 25 years Laurent Garnier has released 5 celebrated albums, continued to be a radio presenter and musical trend-maker for 18 years, embarked on worldwide tours and composed for cinema, television and even ballet. Lauren Garnier is undoubtedly one of the leading electronic music pioneers and most importantly a true artist; eclectic, innovative and ever-evolving with a genuine passion for his craft.

LBS SHOW & SCAN X

Laurent Garnier has taken combining DJing and live performance to a new level with his LBS Concept (Live Boot Sessions / Loud Bass & Samples). LBS was launched in 2010 and ingeniously combines Laurent’s trademark electronic music and live show elements during marathon sets.

 Tonight’s Applesauce line-up consists of Laurent Garnier and Scan X (aka French techno pioneer Stephane Dri), who get together for an extreme 4-hour set and are sure to drive the crowd insane!

Burning The Clocks

The people of Brighton & Hove gather together to make paper and willow lanterns to carry through their city and burn on the beach as a token for the end of the year.

Every year on 21st December, the shortest day of the year, Same Sky – Brighton’s community art charity – produces a much-loved free event in Brighton called Burning the Clocks. The event combines a family lantern procession with a spectacular fire and fireworks show, bringing the whole city together to celebrate.

Burning the Clocks is a unique community event in which local people make their own paper and willow lanterns. After carrying them through the city in a lantern parade they pass them into the fire on Brighton beach, as a token of the year’s end. Then a dazzling fire show is set in motion, in which a massive fire sculpture is ignited, live music plays, and fireworks light up the sky!

Burning the Clocks was created in 1994 as a way to celebrate the festive season regardless of faith or creed. It is free and the route is suitable for all ages and abilities. Over 2,000 people now take part in the parade and over 20,000 spectators turn out to watch.

Here at Sea Spray, we cant wait for this amazing spectical! If you fancy something a little different, this parade and fiery celebration is for you!

The VisitBrighton Greeters on 12th December!

The Greeters Scheme is a great way for visitors to discover the city from a residents’ perspective. They are enthusiastic volunteers who are passionate about Brighton & Hove and tend to show visitors perhaps more unusual places and areas, as well as the main tourism areas and attractions.

So, we are inviting you to experience it first-hand on Wednesday 12th December with Chris Childs.  Some of you may have met Chris when he came to a BHHA meeting earlier this year.  We hope this will give you insight into another way in which your guests can discover the city

The Greet will start from the Visitor Information Centre at 3pm and will last a couple of hours.  Greets are FREE and are only available for up to six people, so it will be first-come, first-served, but if enough people are interested we can always arrange for a second group with another Greeter. 

 

It’s difficult to explain in an email exactly how a Greet is different to an organised tour, so please do take advantage of this and come along to find out.
