About
The Brighton Sauna – Brighton
The Brighton Sauna is a gay sauna at 75/76 Grand Parade, Brighton (BN2 9JA), on the A23 in central Brighton near the Royal Pavilion. It’s about a ten-minute walk from Brighton station and within easy reach of Kemptown’s LGBTQ+ nightlife.
No membership or registration is required — just walk in. The venue runs continuous 24-hour service from Friday midday through to Sunday 9pm, making it one of the very few UK gay saunas open non-stop all weekend. Monday to Thursday hours are midday to 9pm. Wednesday and Sunday are Naked Days. Free towels, lockers, water, Wi-Fi, and condoms and lubricant (courtesy of THT South) are included with every entry.
The Brighton Sauna sits on Grand Parade, steps from the Royal Pavilion and a short walk from Kemptown — the heart of Brighton’s LGBTQ+ scene. That central position, combined with 24-hour weekend sessions running continuously from Friday midday to Sunday evening, makes it a destination for men from well beyond the city itself.
Visitors travel from across Sussex and the wider South Coast: Worthing and Lewes are both around 20 minutes by car, Crawley about 35 minutes, Eastbourne roughly 45 minutes, and Portsmouth about an hour. Brighton station’s direct rail links to London, Gatwick, and the South East mean the venue also draws a steady flow of visitors from further afield — particularly over weekends. For anyone searching for a gay sauna in Brighton or across Sussex, The Brighton Sauna’s combination of scale, central location, and round-the-clock weekend access is hard to match on the South Coast.

Your First Visit
No membership or registration is needed — just walk in and pay at the door. You’ll get a towel, locker key, and access to all facilities. Free condoms, lubricant, chilled water, and Wi-Fi are all included.
If it’s your first time, staff will offer a tour of the venue to help you get your bearings. If your first visit falls on a Naked Day (Wednesday or Sunday), the venue operates towel-free — if you’d prefer a standard towel day, any other day of the week works. The 24-hour weekend sessions are a popular time for first-timers arriving with friends after a night out.

Getting there
Directions
The Brighton Sauna is at 75/76 Grand Parade (A23), Brighton, BN2 9JA — in central Brighton, roughly 50 metres before the Royal Pavilion. Brighton station is about a ten-minute walk away.
From the main station entrance, walk straight ahead down Queens Road. Turn left into Church Street and walk to the end — The Brighton Sauna is ahead on Grand Parade.
Brighton is served by Southern, Thameslink, and Gatwick Express. Direct trains from London Victoria take around 1 hour, from London Bridge around 1 hour 20 minutes, and from Gatwick Airport around 30 minutes.

The A23 runs directly in front of the venue on Grand Parade. From the M23, follow signs towards Brighton and the A23 into the town centre — the venue is on the left, roughly 50 metres before the Pavilion. No parking at the venue — the private bays at the rear are ANPR-monitored 24 hours and not for visitor use. NCP Brighton Theatre (Church Street, BN1 1US) is the nearest multi-storey. Metered street parking is available on William Street and Kingswood Street (meters operate until 6pm). After 7pm, single yellow lines in the surrounding area are generally available.
There is a discreet rear entrance in Grand Parade Mews, by parking bay 5 — ring the doorbell. This is a pedestrian entrance only.
