Brighton i360
A great rainy-day landmark in Brighton and Hove
Brighton i360 is a 162-metre observation tower on the seafront, offering panoramic views of the coast and the South Downs. The futuristic glass viewing pod glides slowly up and down, giving a smooth, family-friendly experience.
Families with kids will love:
The glass floor section – see the ground far below.
Interactive displays and telescopes on the pod (free to use).
The 'Sky Ride' tea and cake package for a special treat.
Free children's activity sheets available at the base.
Practical tips: buggy-friendly (lift access), baby-changing facilities, and a gift shop. The pod is fully enclosed and heated, making it a great rainy-day option. Under-4s go free. Allow 30-45 minutes for the entire ride (ascent, dwell at top, descent).
