We run a cracking range of talks here in Brighton on psychology, neuroscience, and mental health. Past events have covered the neuroscience of attraction, the psychology of fetish and kink, the science of psychedelics, and Carl Jung's psychology. We've also explored the neuroscience of happiness, intergenerational trauma, the gut-brain connection, and even the science of the multiverse. Brighton's got such an open-minded, curious community - whether you're based in Hove, Kemptown, or coming over from Lewes or Worthing, you'll find talks that really get you thinking about the mind and wellbeing.
We bring in top-notch speakers who really know their stuff - clinical psychologists, neuroscientists, researchers, and professors from leading universities. Previous Brighton talks have featured Max Noak on Carl Jung, Michael Brooks on the multiverse, Emily Prpa on the gut-brain connection, and Deba Choudhury on intergenerational trauma. Our speakers are brilliant at making complex psychology and neuroscience accessible and engaging, whether you're studying mental health professionally or just fascinated by how the mind works.
Tickets generally start from around £15, making our psychology and neuroscience talks properly accessible. We don't think learning about mental health, cognitive science, and wellbeing should be just for those with deep pockets. For a tenner or so, you get an evening of fascinating insights from expert speakers, plus the chance to meet other curious minds in Brighton's thriving psychology community. It's great value for what you get.
Yes, most of our Brighton venues have drinks available. It's always nice to grab a drink before settling in for the talk - helps you relax and chat with fellow attendees. Whether you fancy a beer, wine, or something soft, you'll usually find what you need. Brighton's known for its sociable vibe, and we want our psychology talks to feel welcoming and laid-back while still being intellectually engaging.
We've hosted 45 psychology and neuroscience talks in Brighton, with nearly 15,000 people attending our events. Brighton and Hove have been absolutely brilliant for Seed Talks - the community here really embraces discussions about mental health, consciousness, and the science of the mind. From exploring ADHD and trauma to diving into psychedelics and behavioral science, we've built a proper community of psychology enthusiasts along the Sussex coast. Whether you're local to Brighton or travelling from nearby towns across East and West Sussex, you're always welcome.
Not at all! Our Brighton talks are for everyone, whether you've got a degree in psychology or you're just curious about how the mind works. We get a brilliant mix of people - students, therapists, teachers, creatives, and folks who simply love learning about neuroscience and mental health. The talks are designed to be engaging and accessible, so you don't need any background in psychology to enjoy them and get something out of the evening.
