Our sister site carries information on Regency designed Burtons St Leonards and the art installation - Stream. We've just agreed a discounted parking fee at the Marina Car Park for Royal Victoria Hotel visitors during the day and night encouraging more visitors to stay in the area. There is an Illuminated Architecture tour that takes in key St Leonards locations and we work closely with the Marina based Hastings Arts Forum and the Baird Film and Television Initiative.

With our partners Seaspace, we have transformed this much-loved 1930s Marina Pavilion into a quality, year-round seafront entertainment and conference venue.
The renovation works involved upgrading the existing building and creating a brasserie style restaurant in a new road level single-storey building which is screened with coloured glass panels. All parts of the venue have stunning views across the sea toward Beachy Head.
Hospitality group Lightening Leisure Ltd has taken over the management of the venue as 'Azur at the Marina Pavilion'.
Lightening Leisure is a new company set up to run Marina Pavilion by entrepreneurial duo David Thorpe-Tracey and Allison McQueen-Luzar. David Thorpe-Tracey was a founding director of West Ham United Hospitality Ltd (the hospitality arm of the football club) and Allison McQueen-Luzar is one of the UKs top complementary medicine consultants.
Lightening Leisure will run Azur as a landmark restaurant, entertainment, wedding and conference venue, beach-front bistro café and state-of-the-art complementary health and beauty suite clinic.
If you have any queries, please call Lightening Leisure on 0845 812 1066.
