Brighton i360
Brighton i360 is the world’s tallest moving observation tower. Conceived and designed by Marks Barfield Architects, creators of the London Eye, it is the most spectacular events venue on the south coast.
As guests glide up gently to 450ft in the futuristic glass viewing pod, the breath-taking 360-degree views will offer them a whole new perspective on Brighton and Hove, the South Downs and the beautiful Sussex coastline.
Natural light pours into the Brighton i360 beach building through full-height windows. There are nine events areas and the two largest, Attenborough and Birch, open out onto private seafront terraces.
The flexible spaces can accommodate any event from intimate meetings to major product launches, awards ceremonies, conferences, and seated dinners for up to 290 people or exclusive hire for up to 1,100 guests.
The site only uses green energy and incredibly the pods descent will power 50% of the energy required for the pods ascent. The pod itself has thermal insulation, and double glazing to minimise energy usage and electricity is the only energy source used, and this comes entirely from renewable energy sources. The restaurant only serves locally sourced food and a composter has been installed that turns waste into the water!
