About Fort Perch Rock

Nestled on the Marine Promenade in New Brighton, Fort Perch Rock is a historic coastal defence fort that has evolved into a vibrant museum and cultural event venue. With a rich maritime legacy, the fort now hosts regular concerts, private events, and immersive experiences like Escape The Fort. It’s a reliable, easy option for a day out or a night of live entertainment—like having a friend in the business who knows the best way to secure your seats.

Whether you’re planning a family visit, a private hire at The Mess cafe, or a concert night, we’ve got you covered with practical details on parking, transport, seating, and nearby hotel and dining options to make your trip seamless.

Seating & capacity: Fort Perch Rock is a historic space repurposed for modern events. Seating arrangements vary by event, with stage setups for concerts and theatre-style layouts for talks and private hires. For private events, The Mess cafe offers private hire capacity from 25 to 150 guests. When attending public events, check event pages for specific seating or standing configurations and arrive early to secure preferred spots.
