Christmas is a time for sharing experiences and enjoying the company of friends and loved ones. This is especially true after what 2020 has brought us. So, we are pleased to bring you some exciting ways to escape to the skies this December at BA i360 allowing us all to celebrate Christmas in style!
FESTIVE POD FLIGHTS
Walking in a winter wonderland.
Take a flight onboard our beautifully decorated glass viewing pod this December and as you slowly glide up to 450ft enjoy a drink from the South Coast’s highest bar, the Nyetimber Sky Bar! Breathtaking views are, after all, best admired with a glass in hand.
Tickets are available to purchase now for flights from Thursday 3rd December!

It’s not Christmas without bubbles and who doesn’t love bubbles?
We are honoured to serve Nyetimber, the finest award-winning English Sparkling Wine at BA i360, and proud to have them sponsor the Sky Bar on board the pod. We love to celebrate them at every given opportunity, which is why we are excited to announce we have teamed up with them to bring you an exclusive tasting event on board British Airways i360 this December.

Just the (gin &) tonic you need this December!
We are proud to serve the very best in locally sourced food and drink at BA i360, and love to work with our suppliers to bring our guests new and exclusive experiences. So, we are thrilled to announce that we have teamed up local supplier, Brighton Gin, to offer a new and exclusive Brighton Gin Tasting Flight on board the British Airways i360 pod.

FESTIVE WREATH MAKING – NEW BOOKING – cancelled
If you love Christmas, then you will love our Festive Wreath making workshops!
Another new for 2020, floral designer, Gillie Fuller will demonstrate how to make a wreath that you can hang up on your walls or front door or can be used as a table centrepiece. Gillie will chat about how to choose your seasonal flowers, colour pallets and other ingredients you can use to create a stunning display. After a break, you will then choose your selection of flowers and foliage to create your wonderful wreaths.
The workshop will be taking place in our stunning beach front event room with sea views out to the West Pier and all along the coastline.
Refreshments will be available to purchase throughout the workshop. Special offer of a BA i360 Flight on the day of your workshop for just £10 per person.
NEW YEARS EVE FLY & DINE – NOW BOOKING
The end of 2020 is nearly upon us and that has got to be something to celebrate!
We would normally be partying with you at 450ft into the small hours to bring in the new year, but alas 2020 has other ideas. So, instead, we are pleased to host a special New Year’s Eve Fly & Dine package, the perfect way to spend time with loved ones, before seeing in the new year safe at home!
So, come and escape to the skies onboard the BA i360 pod before sharing your last meal of the year with friends and family at our beachside restaurant, West Beach.
We have laid on a decadent three-course set menu, with fresh ingredients from local suppliers with gluten free, vegan and vegetarian options are available. Why not upgrade your ticket to a Sparkling Wine Experience and toast goodbye to 2020 and bring in 2021?
Our News Years Eve Fly & Dine packages are available from 12 midday until 7pm and are subject to availability.
