The Beacon Royal in Oriental Place, Hove was the premier LGBT venue in Brighton and Hove in the late 80s and early 90s.
IT was a unique entertainment complex, years ahead of its time, featuring a hotel, bar and basement nightclub.
Did you go clubbing at the club, drink in the bar or stay or work at the hotel?
If so, Sid Spencer is putting together a book of memories of one of the city’s iconic LGBT+ venues and wants to hear your stories.
