The Night

Ye Olde King & Queen is a large, long-standing pub and music venue on Marlborough Place in central Brighton, a short walk from the station. It used to host a Blakk Treakle open mic, but that night is confirmed to have stopped (last verified December 2021) and the venue now leans on karaoke, student nights and live bands. We can't currently point you to a running open mic here — check directly with the pub before turning up to perform.

About Ye Olde King & Queen Brighton

Ye Olde King & Queen is one of Brighton's oldest pub sites, at 13-17 Marlborough Place (BN1 1UB), with origins around 1779 and the present striking Mock-Tudor building dating from the 1930s — half-timbering, steep roofs and prominent chimneys. A large, lively city-centre pub open seven days a week, it serves traditional British pub food and is woven into Brighton's social life. It frequently hosts live music bands and entertainment alongside sport on the big screens, quiz nights and karaoke. With around 100 standing capacity and a PA, it's a sizeable, characterful spot for covers bands and live entertainment in the heart of Brighton.
