With captivating exhibits and the stunning Royal Pavilion, visitors embark on a journey of discovery and wonder. Their commitment ensures each visit is a memorable experience, fostering a deeper appreciation for our shared heritage.
Thanks to a significant grant from the National Lottery Heritage Fund (NLHF) for the 'A Garden Fit for a King' project, the Trust aims to restore and reconnect the historic Brighton Royal Pavilion Estate. This ambitious initiative involves conservation efforts, enhancing the visitor experience, and fostering stronger ties with the Brighton community.
