Many 'At The Edge Of The Sea' fans travelling from outside of Sussex camp at the Brighton Caravan Club Site [East Brighton Park, Brighton BN2 5TS] which is near to the restaurants of the Brighton Marina and just 1.5 miles from Concorde 2. The site takes bookings for August from February onwards. Those not keen on camping may be interested to know that less expensive accommodation may be found outside of Brighton, whose hotels attract tourists throughout the year. One example is Gatwick Airport, which is served by frequent trains departing from Brighton Railway Station right up until 11PM on Fridays and midnight on Saturdays. Finally, snacks are available during At The Edge Of The Sea from the Barefoot Café which is over the road from Concorde 2. |
