Remember, if you're pressed for time you don't have to complete the whole tour in one go. You can do as much or as little as you like, when you like - it's up to you!

Burning of the Clocks : 21st December 2007

Brighton celebrates the shortest day of the year with a paper lantern parade through the city. The theme for the lanterns changes every year but the costumes worn by those taking taking part are supposed to include a clock-face to represent the passing of time.

The actual ceremonial 'burning of the clocks' takes place when the lanterns representing the old year are burnt on a bonfire on the seafront. This is then followed by a spectacular fireworks display which makes way for the New Year and the coming of spring.

For more details visit www.burningtheclocks.co.uk where you can also purchase a lantern kit if you want to participate.
