Victoria Gardens
Victoria Gardens is right in the middle of town it's right next to the pavillion. It's used for events during Brighton festival. Good site though reall central
Argh I won't be here.
It doesn't look too bad for the money.
oh
ive always just known them as the pavillion gardens.

Corrrr
This looks quite good. Field Day festival the week before then this. Swish!

Glad someone cleared that up
I was stumped about where the Victoria Gardens are! Pretty good line-up, Metronomy are always fantastic each time I see them. And always have a new set of dance moves that amuse and amaze me in equal amounts. Bring it on!!!!
