Later licence bid for Brighton night club

A night club with a history of noise complaints wants to open until 6am for a one-off event.

Audio in Marine Parade, Brighton, plans to host its Warehouse club night on August 11.

It has applied to Brighton and Hove City Council for a temporary event licence which would give it permission to put back its closing time from 4am to 6am.

The application said: “We have been given the opportunity to showcase a number of DJs from a top record label.

“Due to the number of DJs we require to open later.”

However Sussex Police has opposed the plans adding a noise abatement notice was served on the club earlier this year.

It added residents are still complaining about being disturbed by music from the basement venue.

A decision will be made at a hearing of Brighton and Hove City Council ’s licensing panel on Thursday, August 9 in Brighton Town Hall at 10am.

Bravo! what a brainwave idea. Doesn't this comment by Buriram say it all, common sense at its best why should morons keep everyone else awake ALL night.

This building has been a music venue and club for 40 odd years, so why do people move to homes nearby when they know about this? If you buy a home in central Brighton and expect peace and quiet after 11 pm then you are surely misguided...the council issue far too many late licences so why not take it up with them instead of complaining about a long established business?

Of course they should be granted the licence!

Its been a nightclub for years and what difference will it really make if it closes at 6am rather than 4am?

Its ridiculous that the Police/Council have served a noise abatement notice on them.

Audio has a right to survive the overdevelopment around it as the Council will just bow to 1 complainant and cause Audio a problem.

They closed the Free Butt essentially because of 1 person complaining.

Look at the bigger picture and let many people enjoy themselves.
