Come and celebrate the year with Lighthouse. Join us for our Festive Fundraiser hosted by the splendid drag artist Alfie Ordinary. You can expect DJs, including a set from Brighton legend The Glitter Bosher, a live performance from one of our Future Creative Leaders Dred, plus the usual drinks, dancing and merriment.
There will be a raffle with tonnes of prizes on offer, all donated by local companies, including two tickets to Love Supreme Festival, a Brighton Gin gift set, two tickets from our pals at The Old Market to see Please right back by 1927 - plus much, much more! If you can't make the event, you can still buy a raffle ticket online here. Tickets are £1 each or £5 a strip.
Drinks will be provided, with donations encouraged, and tickets are sold on a Pay What You Decide basis. All profits from the evening will support our work with young creatives, providing them with the resources they need to flourish in the arts. This is a unique opportunity to be part of a meaningful cause and ensure we can keep doing more of the same next year.
Come along to celebrate with us. Your support will make a difference!
We're also running a silent auction with artwork, experiences and a signed Brighton and Hove Albion 2024 squad shirt all available to bid on. Check out the auction here, open until Friday 13 December.

Introducing Brighton-based artist Dred. Influenced by the likes of Nines, Dave, Jay Z, Kendrick Lamar, and Nipsey Hussle, Dred uses his relatable lyricism and story-telling ability to deliver musically dense, gritty and catchy UK rap bangers. His content and creative writing point at his own real life experiences and paint vivid pictures, stirring emotions in songs like ‘Otis’, to street ready segments such as ‘Cascades’ which display his real rap foundations through and through. Dred is one our Lighthouse Future Creative Leaders.
