October 2024 brightonSEO schedule

07:30 AM

5k seafront run

60 minutes

Brighton seafront, outside the Brighton Centre, W3W: swing.grid.papers

Kick start your day at the conference with the brightonSEO seafront run - a great conversation-inclined run in along the shoreline and back. Get your blood pumping before a whole day of learning.

The run, typically led by male and female runners from local group RunPals, will be inclusive of any ability, so you can choose how fast or slow you go – every ability is welcome.

Pre-registration is required but free, and will open nearer the date.

Yoga in the Lanes

60 minutes

Yoga in the Lanes, 67 Middle Street, Brighton, BN1 1AL

Enjoy a calming yoga class to counteract your brain getting busy at the conference.

The class is lead by experienced local yoga instructors and the studio provides mats, props and use of shower/hairdryer/facilities 15 minutes prior to class and for 30 minutes afterwards.

Places are free but you need to reserve a place. Please only book if you definitely plan to attend. Spaces are limited to 15 people per class and if you don’t turn up it means someone else could’ve taken part.

08:00 AM

Beach Clean

60 minutes

Brighton beach, Meet opposite the Brighton Centre, BN1

Get some fresh sea air and exercise before spending the conference day indoors.

This session, run with Surfers Against Sewage Brighton and ethically driven Brighton-based digital agency Creative Bloom, offers a unique opportunity to meet and chat with some fellow delegates, not to mention the good feeling of doing something positive for Brighton seafront by collecting up some of the plastic waste and rubbish from the beach!

Meet opposite the Brighton Centre at 8am on the morning of the conference - look out for the Surfers Against Sewage flag and stand on the upper promenade. SAS will provide gloves, pickers and bags.

Catch up with old SEO friends and make some new ones. Reinvigorate after a long day’s travel, let your hair down, and enjoy some tunes & beverages of your choice at Patterns Bar.

Even better? Grab a drink (on Lumar) at the bar and let Lumar help you get the party started with great vibes and great company.

You won't need to book a ticket in advance to attend, but our drinks vouchers will be dished out at the door on a first come, first served basis. You'll also need to bring your brightonSEO badge (and lanyard if you've collected it.)

This event is sponsored by Lumar, so we'd like to scan your brightonSEO badge on the way in and pass your details on to them in order that they can contact you with direct marketing about the marvellous things they do.

What people say about us

Director, Ballyhoo PR

brightonSEO was the highlight of my year for so many reasons. As an agency we can’t stand still. We need to move with the times and keep on learning. We crammed so much learning into three fantastic days. This knowledge is driving our own business plans for 2024 as well as enabling us to do more for our clients. It was also a mini break, social and team bonding all rolled into one too! As an employer, it also meant a lot to me to be able to do this for the team.
