Flying Circus Art Fair May 2026

Flying Circus Art Fair

Flying Circus Art Fair | Get ready Brighton, something BIG is rolling into town!

Housed within the beautiful Brighton Unitarian Church, local artists Jessie-Marie (BeauBottletops/Beau-Events) and Bobby Dazzler are launching their first affordable art fair this May.

Artworks from more than 150 artists will fill the space for the week-long event, offering a variety of styles, subjects and prices to suit all budgets. “We’re so excited to be running this event for artists and art lovers,” says Jessie.

As established artists in their own right, with years of experience exhibiting and running their own shows, the pair know all too well the struggles many creatives face in getting their work to market.

“It is so important for us to create the full art fair experience for a fraction of the usual cost to artists who can in turn pass the savings on to buyers.”

“We’ve worked hard to source artists from both Sussex and beyond at various stages in their careers, from up and comers to household names – it’s the perfect chance for buyers to find a unique piece to enhance or begin a collection,” says Bobby.

Alongside this visual extravaganza, some of Brighton’s favourite food and drink vendors will be offering tasty treats throughout the week as well as the fair’s official sponsor Pen to Paper, which will have some of its fantastic collection on offer. Be sure to check it out!
