More about the space

Since 2006, The Space has brought together audiences and influential figures from across the creative industries for informal and engaging live conversations.

Each event usually features two guests interviewed separately about their work, careers and experiences. The interviews are conversational rather than formal, giving audiences unique insight into the creative process.

After each interview there is an audience Q&A session, followed by a raffle draw with a range of prizes – often donated by the guests themselves.

Events are held in intimate venues in Brighton.
