Brighton Summer Open
15th – 17th August 2025
The 7th Brighton Summer Open will be taking place between 14th – 17th August 2025. The main event will be shortened to 15th – 17th however there will be side events and an extra warm-up event on Thursday evening for those that want to make a longer trip.
The 2024 event was successful although a lower number than 2023 caused by an unfortunately packed tournament Calendar. We still managed to attracted 10 International players keeping it as a truly international event.
In 2024 the Intermediates event was part of the UKBGF Tour but won’t be in 2025, Hopefully 2025 we will attract many more players and one day hopefully the Masters and Inters will be added to the tour.
Brighton is one of the most attractive locations in the UK for International players, a cosmopolitan seaside resort close to London and with Gatwick Airport conveniently only 30 minutes away by train. With hundreds of exceptional restaurants serving food from every part of the world and a wide variety of places to stay the event should not be missed
Come and join us in the future, come for longer and bring the family there is plenty for them to do whilst you play backgammon.
