People’s Day is a celebration of the city’s diversity and offers an opportunity for community groups to unite to showcase their work and talents.
Event organisers are seeking participants to make this year’s event bigger than ever before. Activities will take place in the heart of the cultural quarter – focusing on New Road and the surrounding area.
Brighton & Hove’s annual People’s Day this year will take place on Saturday July 14, as part of the city’s Olympic Torch relay weekend festivities.
The Olympic Torch is due to reach the city on July 16, as it tours the country before the 2012 games.
People’s Day will feature a mix of live music, dance performances, healthy living and digital interaction.

Community groups can apply for an information pack to find out how to be involved.
People’s Day also offers an opportunity for businesses to target more than 15,000 visitors on the day. Information will also be shared with a broad audience before and after the event. A range of sponsorship opportunities is available.
Cllr Bill Randall said:
“People’s Day is a celebration of all that is
a good about our city. We encourage as many groups as possible to take
part to show the fantastic mix of lifestyles we have in Brighton &
Hove. The timing of People’s Day to coincide with the Olympic Torch
visiting our city adds a sense of being part of a wider community,
celebrating our differences and achievements from grass roots to
international level.”
