The De La Warr Pavilion has been voted one of the top 10 most beautiful gig venues in Britain and is a pioneering centre for the arts. Situated overlooking the sea, on England's south coast, it is a place where everyone can experience contemporary exhibitions, events and entertainment in an iconic Modernist building.

Bexhill-on-Sea is the Birthplace of British Motor Racing, home of the De La Warr Pavilion and Guinness World Record breaker for the largest gathering of dancers (worldwide) to perform the Charleston dance. A tranquil seaside town, located at the very heart of the district of Rother, Bexhill isa great place to visit. Travel a short distance along the coast to visit Hastings, or make the most of the easy links to London.
