Bulldog Bar Brighton, the oldest gay bar in Brighton which is one of the biggest supporters of the Brighton Rainbow Fund, has announced it is closing its doors.
The bar said on Facebook:
“To all our loyal friends and customers.
We are distraught to inform you all that we have had to come to a very sad and emotional decision. Due to what we have had to endure over the last four years or so (the pandemic and the current economic climate and excessive overheads we are having to maintain) we have decided that we have no option but to close the doors of the All New Bulldog Brighton.
We would like to give a massive thank you to you all for your custom and support during those years with so many fabulous times and unfortunately difficult ones too.
We are so proud of our achievements and what we have accomplished since taking over in 2018, refurbishing the venue, creating seven epic events a week, build a fantastic team and raising money for the Brighton Rainbow Fund – Brighton & Hove Charity.
We are closing these doors with a heavy heart but we are looking forward to the future with optimism and determination. We as a team will stand proud in what we have built, in turning around the business, and making a legendary LGBTQ+ safe space.
This isn’t the end of our story just the beginning of another chapter.
But for now this is the All New Bulldog Brighton, the Heart of Gay Brighton saying good night, stay safe and get ready for what’s coming next.
BIG LOVE
Team Fierce”
