> Brighton reinvented itself as a party town Rediscovered, maybe. It has long been a party town, from the Pavilion - a faux-Indian palace put up by a Prince Regent in a previous century for seaside parties - Quadrophenia-era nightclubs to being the gay capital of England all before Fat Boy Slim was born. It’s also the south coast town closest to London, with a direct railway line. Huge geographical-economic advantage over Blackpool. It was a wonderful place to be a student in the ‘90s.
