The Brighton Centre is a conference centre located in Brighton, England. The capacity of the main hall for conferences is 4,500 people and 5,100 for standing concerts.

It also has smaller rooms for weddings, banquets etc.

As well as hosting business conferences, entertainment events, and a regular records & comics sale, the Centre is known for regularly hosting conferences of the major British political parties.

The main hall was also the home venue of former professional basketball team Brighton Bears, which folded in 2006. Basketball will return to Brighton in 2008 with the addition of Brighton Cougars to the British Basketball League, though it is unconfirmed whether the Brighton Centre will be used as the home venue.
