Group visits

The Royal Pavilion is very busy during July and August, especially at the weekends, and during this time we do not admit any unbooked groups. Please call our bookings team on 03000 290901 if you are bringing a group and they will give you a time slot for entry. Visit our Travel trade and groups page for more information.

Storage Facilities

We regret that we do not have the facilities to store any luggage and in line with many historic buildings large luggage and suitcases are not permitted inside the palace due to conservation reasons.

We do have a buggy park but luggage and other items must not be left in this room.
