Visitor Information
The De La Warr Pavilion is a Modernist icon for contemporary art situated a pebble's throw from the beach in Bexhill on Sea, East Sussex.
This magnificent Grade One listed building has welcomed over half a million visitors since re-opening in October 2005 after a major £9 million refurbishment and redevelopment. As well as being one of this country‘s architectural landmarks, it also has an enviable reputation as home to some of the best contemporary art on the international circuit today, exhibited in two beautifully restored galleries.
Fresh, locally-sourced food is served in our first floor restaurant overlooking the sea. Or you can sit in the café/bar or outside on the balconies for a drink and home-made snack from 10am- 5.30pm. There is also a breathtaking roof-top terrace where you can linger to take in the panoramic view before coming back down to the ground floor and visiting our shop, selling books and unique souvenirs by top designers.
A seasonal programme of events to cater for all tastes is available both inside the auditorium and outside – visit performances and events.
