Brighton's premier venue for major gigs and conferences, the Brighton Centre is a 5,100 capacity auditorium. Currently under discussion is a £200 million re-build programme. As well as putting on luminaries such as Van Morrison, Shirley Bassey and Michael Crawford it's also the chosen venues of bands of the moment. The Labour Party Conference is often staged here and the centre is renowned as an exhibition and conference space. It also houses the East Wing which comprises two halls of 400 capacity each, used for after club parties or a more intimate venue for touring bands. Ticket prices vary according to programme.
