Official West Pier, Brighton

The ongoing work of the West Pier Trust is to investigate the creation of a new contemporary West Pier for Brighton which complements and enhances the character of the city.

We are committed through education and conservation to preserving and celebrating the history of the West Pier. We are also responsible for the remains of the pier and the administration of the site.

As proud landlord of British Airways i360, we believe this brilliant new landmark for Brighton is a worthy successor in design and engineering terms to the West Pier and confirms the city’s reputation for innovative world class architecture. It will undoubtedly play a significant role in the regeneration of the seafront, boost the city’s economy and make a future new West Pier more likely.

A focal point of the landscaping on either side of the i360 will be a restored 1866 octagonal kiosk which was salvaged from the pier in the late 1990’s.
