On this magical evening, we invite you to experience art as something lived in time — moving through spaces animated by unexpected performance, sculpture, sound and moving image in dialogue with the Royal Pavilion’s iconic interiors. Over two centuries after its original conception as the most provocative, radical and extraordinary architectural and interior wonder in Europe – created to host the most extravagant evenings and salons of its time – The Royal Pavilion will, on this unique occasion, be transformed and curated by The Adelaide Salon into a living embodiment of contemporary arts, including performance, music, fine food and Sussex sparkling wines.
Guests will enjoy:
- Contemporary live art and performances across the Royal Pavilion, throughout the evening
- Works from established and emerging artists. Site-responsive art installations, film, sound, digital art and sculpture
- Live music & curated encounters, Sussex sparkling wines, fine food and refreshment all evening
- An intimate gathering of guests, patrons, artists and cultural figures
- Membership of the Adelaide Salon and special exclusive surprises
- Dress code: Gala – Creative Glamour
The evening marks the beginning of a new partnership between The Adelaide Salon and Brighton & Hove Museums, opening a new chapter of Philanthropy and Patronage of Heritage and Contemporary Arts & Culture for Brighton.
This exclusive, limited-capacity event introduces a new model of cultural philanthropy and participation, supporting future artistic programming and heritage development in Brighton & Hove.
