Just copied and pasted the news from the official site.



Royal Pavilion
Sunday 22 January 2012
Open 10am–5.15pm (last admission 4.30pm)
No booking required
Free admission


The Royal Pavilion opens its doors for the annual People’s Palace Open Day on Sunday 22 January 2012, with FREE entry all day. Come along and find out how you can get involved in helping to conserve and care for the Royal Pavilion all year round.

There will also be another chance to experience Johanna Hällsten’s sound installation, A Regency Utopia commissioned for White Night 2011. The installation explores the hidden human histories of the Royal Pavilion through a series of soundscapes played in rooms throughout the building.  These sounds celebrate the individuals and activities that have sustained the life of the palace from the time of George IV up to the present day. 

In the run up to the Open Day, we will be posting material on our social media sites relating to the civic history of the Royal Pavilion. Why did the people of Brighton acquire the Pavilion in 1850, and what uses has the palace been put to in the last 162 years?

You can also take part in our People's Palace Quiz for a chance to win free admission to the Royal Pavilion and a cream tea for two.
