About The City Brief Worthing
Your Personal Newsletter For All Local Events in Worthing
Worthing has a long history as a seaside destination, and today it remains a community where people want to stay connected to what's happening around them. From the seafront to neighbourhoods like East Beach and Tarring, there's always something to discover, whether that's a seasonal fair, a guided walk, or an evening of music. The City Brief helps people across Worthing stay informed about local events and activities. We cover what's on each week: theatre performances at the Connaught Theatre, art exhibitions, community celebrations, guided tours, and the festivals that bring neighbourhoods together. Whether you live in West Worthing, Heene, or Central Worthing, you'll find event information that matters to your corner of the town. Our coverage spans the full calendar. We track recurring traditions like the May Day procession and Wassailing in Tarring, as well as seasonal highlights such as the Bonfire Night Fireworks Display and summer open-air concerts. We report on community markets, gallery openings, and the smaller gatherings that keep neighbourhoods connected. When Durrington holds its Summertime Festival or when exhibitions come to Worthing Pier Road, we keep you informed. Worthing has a genuine culture and community life. The Worthing Museum & Gallery, local theatre productions, and neighbourhood events reflect how people here spend their time together. Our role is straightforward: to gather information about what's on, organise it by week, and help you discover what interests you, whether you're looking for family activities, evening entertainment, or ways to support local arts and culture. We believe that staying informed about local events strengthens community ties. By reading The City Brief each week, you'll know what's happening across Worthing, and you'll be able to plan ahead or stumble upon something unexpected. That's our neighbourhood approach to local news.
