Point of interest

Brighton i360

in Brighton, United Kingdom

A 162-metre observation tower by the creators of the London Eye, lifting visitors in a glass pod for sweeping views over the coast and South Downs.

Where it is

The observation tower stands right on the seafront promenade at the foot of the former West Pier, on the western stretch of the seafront.

Address: King's Road, BN1 2LN Brighton

What it is

A glass viewing pod glides slowly upwards for a 360-degree panorama over Brighton, the South Downs and the English Channel. There is a bar on board, and adventurous visitors can even stand on top of the pod.

History

The 162-metre tower opened on 4 August 2016, designed by the same team behind the London Eye. After closing in late 2024 the attraction changed hands and reopened in March 2025.
