Opened in 2022 on Boyce’s Street in central Brighton, Oculist has quickly established itself as one of the city’s more versatile nightlife spots. Spread across two floors, the ground level is a stripped-back event space with an industrial edge. Upstairs, a two-tier rooftop terrace sets it apart from most Brighton venues, catching the sun through the day and keeping the energy going into the night. The music policy leans into house, UK garage, disco and techno, with local collectives and rising DJs sharing the bill alongside bigger names on weekends. Oculist has also built a strong relationship with Brighton’s promoter community, regularly handing the room over to local nights and student collectives. Relatively new but already well embedded in the scene.
