Local tip
Calling ahead can help confirm the day's entertainment, current opening hours and any booking arrangements.

The Zone Bar is a Kemptown venue at 33 St James's Street in Brighton, with a format centred on drinks, entertainment and a lively programme of hosted activities. Its character comes from a mix of live music, cabaret, karaoke and bingo, giving the bar several different ways to spend an evening or daytime visit.

Live music provides a performance element, while cabaret adds a theatrical strand to the venue's identity. Karaoke makes the setting more participatory, and bingo brings a structured game into the bar environment. Together, these activities give The Zone Bar an entertainment-led style rather than a food-focused one. The combination suits visitors looking for a bar where organised entertainment forms part of the experience.

The venue's karaoke and bingo formats can appeal to groups seeking an informal social outing, while live music and cabaret offer reasons to visit when a performance is the main attraction. The range of activities also gives the bar a flexible character across different occasions. Some visits may focus on watching a show or listening to music, while others may centre on joining in with karaoke or taking part in bingo.

The setting is straightforward and urban, located on St James's Street within Kemptown. The address places the venue among the neighbourhood's bars and nightlife, with the focus firmly on an indoor bar atmosphere and scheduled entertainment. The Zone Bar is therefore suited to adults looking for a casual social venue with music, performance and group activities in the same place.

The venue lists daytime and evening opening, with earlier opening on Wednesday through Sunday and a later start on Monday and Tuesday. Opening times and entertainment arrangements can change, so current details are best confirmed with the bar before a visit. The Zone Bar can be contacted on 01273 682249 for practical questions about reservations, events, access and the arrangements for a particular day.
