Local tip
Checking whether a listing is a live event or a club night helps set expectations before arrival.

CHALK is an independent live music and club venue at 13 Pool Valley in Brighton. Its programme is built around two main formats: live performances and club events, giving the venue an event-led identity rather than the feel of a conventional restaurant or bar listing.

The live programme covers concerts by touring and established acts, while the club calendar includes themed nights and DJ-led events. The range shown by the venue includes alternative, indie, rock and pop-oriented performances alongside more playful party concepts, creating a varied schedule rather than a single fixed musical style. Each event brings its own format, audience and atmosphere, so CHALK can suit both concertgoers looking for a live set and clubbers seeking a themed night out.

CHALK’s character comes from this changing mix of live music and club programming. A concert night offers a performance-focused setting, while a club event is shaped by its theme and music policy. The distinction matters when choosing an event, particularly for visitors deciding between a gig, a dance night or a more unusual party format. The venue publishes its upcoming listings by event type, making it possible to check the format before making plans.

The Pool Valley address places CHALK within Brighton’s central visitor area, close to the city’s seafront-side nightlife and entertainment routes. The setting makes the venue suitable for an evening organised around a particular event, whether that means arriving for a band or planning a night around a club listing. Its website also provides accessibility information, group booking details, contact information and welfare guidance, reflecting the practical needs of different types of event visitors.

As CHALK’s programme changes, the individual listing remains the best guide to the musical style, entry arrangements and suitability of each night. The venue suits adults and older music fans who prefer a dedicated live or club setting, with the choice between scheduled performances and themed events. It is a useful Brighton option for event-led evenings where the main focus is the music, the performers or the club concept.
