The Green Door Store

Having opened its doors in January 2011, GDS has quickly has become one of Brighton’s most loved hubs for live DIY music. The ethos is pretty simple – with up to 14 events a week, it can almost 100% guarantee there is always something for everyone. The bar is always free entry, and the whole venue is usually free entry after 11pm (except for selected club nights) so that money is not an issue to ensure inclusivity for everyone to enjoy music without money being an issue. As a DIY venue, we have witnessed another detrimental year for local music venues (especially in Brighton) alongside seeing the fallout and effect on the local music community. We are proud to still be operating better than ever almost a decade after opening our doors, with the same continual support of our dedicated audience and maintaining the status as one of Brighton’s most loved venues. The venue itself is one of the most inclusive, forward-thinking venues with the local community at the forefront and priority of the venue.
