The Chapel Royal is a warm, open, and affirming church community at the heart of Brighton’s city centre, where you’ll find peace, sanctuary, support and worship.
The Chapel Royal is the Church of England’s parish for central Brighton. We are enriched by one of the most diverse communities in the city.
Everyone is welcome at the Chapel Royal, exactly as they are.
Upcoming Services
Holy Week - Evening Online Prayers
Prayerfully finish your day as we look at the activities of Jesus after he had entered Jerusalem. Often overlooked, the Monday, Tuesday and
Wednesday are rich with the peace making wisdom of Jesus. We will prayerfully reflect on a passage depicting what was happening on that day in Holy week. No participation needed and you can keep your camera off if it helps.
Monday 30th March until Wednesday 1st April, 21.00-21.20.

Mass will be followed by a vigil from 20.00.
Celebrate the conception of the Church with Mass before we strip the church of its refinements and silently move into the vigil, where we sit with Jesus in the garden of Gethsemane.
