Step into a night of elegance at The Grand Brighton. Enjoy a sparkling drinks reception, a four-course gala dinner, live entertainment, ball

Step into something truly special this November.

For one night only, The Grand Brighton is transformed into a spectacular ballroom setting for an unforgettable black tie gala. Think elegance, atmosphere, and a touch of Strictly magic.

Your evening begins with a VIP sparkling drinks reception and meet & greet. A chance to arrive in style, soak up the setting, and connect with fellow guests before taking your seat.

From there, you’ll be treated to a beautifully curated four-course dinner with wine for the table. Expect quality, attention to detail, and a dining experience that feels every bit as premium as the occasion.

The highlight of the evening is a very special guest appearance from Anton Du Beke. Known and loved for his role on Strictly Come Dancing, Anton will take to the stage for a live performance, followed by an exclusive Q&A. A rare opportunity to hear stories, insights, and moments from one of the most recognisable names in British entertainment.

As the evening unfolds, the ballroom comes alive.

There is also the chance to win a luxury cruise in the evening’s prize draw, adding an extra layer of excitement to an already memorable night.

This is more than just a dinner. It is an experience.

A chance to celebrate.

A chance to be part of something that feels considered, social, and special.

This evening also supports Together Co, a Brighton-based charity dedicated to tackling loneliness and social isolation. Through befriending services, social prescribing, and community connections, they help people feel seen, supported, and part of something again. Your ticket plays a small part in making that happen.
