It's actually remarkable that they get 200,000+ customers a year all paying £20 and they can't make a profit. Great asset. A very different animal but I would note that the most profitable tourist attraction of all time in London is The London Eye. £30mln of annual profit. But I also note it's owned by Merlin. And I have to say they would be more likely to be the preferred bidder if they're interested. LJ and PIER shareholders don't have deep enough pockets and he has made himself toxic among the Brightonian political class. Hope I'm wrong

Brightons i360 attraction gone into administration with the local council agreeing a debt write off:'



Mattman in the Comments suggests Brighton Pier Group are the preferred bidders which would tie in with LJ's comments from a few years ago:-



New operator to be revealed soon:-

Hi davidosh,

Around 90% of the stores are franchised. franchisees do set their own prices but are encouraged to stick within a region price band.

if the pier are charging local residents they should offer a yearly one.

fact remains, I think with the NIC increase and NMW there will be a huge rise in currently free-admisson places that now need to charge.

that makes sense Ijamlon

it's good that the shares were tight on Friday hence the large spread and full ask, and over ask even though the trades were small.

February 2024 had the worst rainfall on record with a fair few full closures at the Pier so surely Feb this year can't be any worse you would have thought...

Adventure Attractions owns Bournemouth Pier, also Cromer Pier. Private owner.

I think they are looking at increasing admission prices for peak times. Personally they should increase it to say £2 with a concession for families. The £1 was only really a trial price. They could even charge more with a "money off" voucher for food/drink. Of course, buying a wristband should include free entry. Personally, they should start charging for residents in 2026 with a reduced amount. It's too expensive nowadays to run free attractions. If they charge more, then they should really invest some of it back into upgrading the pier itself.

It's too expensive for places like this NOT to charge now. Times have changed. This includes all piers and similar attractions. You cant provide free toilets anymore or free walkways on old structures.

Agreed Goldie, other than more golf sites, we don't need any more investments right now.

They are progressing in generating sales by extra pier events and extending the season at LWV which i only knew about reading the EDISON note (Available on the BPG main website). The extended season at LWV will help a bit.

I don't think weather proofing the weather is gong to help much in my opinion.

Bournemouth Pier have good events on. The next one is sold out which includes a 3 course meal. One thing they could do is a zip line like Bournemouth Pier. Be interesting to see if thats worthwhile.

Most importantly, we just need a normal year of weather for a good Like for like comp.

do not need to invest more just make your assets earn more i.e. putting up prices .for example put pier admission up to a fiver but give away £10 of free vouchers with entrance but real value at £3 some rides free also goes on machines free gift etc easy to do, belive Bournemouth pier charge £3 go upmarket not down be brave just look at theatre tickets now for a clue wake up marketing people .have been the entertainment business for over 50 years so know a liitle bit by now

Brighton Pier needs to be sold, the pier itself might be a cash cow, but the money raised would be better spent at L.V. and the golf division. Imagine it will cost some’at soon to sustain.

Hi Guys,

Some good conversations there.... Thank you.

I was speaking to their PR company yesterday.

Obviously they couldn't say anything to me that's not in the market domain, but suffice to say the current depressed share price disappointment is also shared by the directors and I was told this is the whole sector as a whole and not just PIER.

He also mentioned that the Directors are confident that it can navigate the rise in NI and national minimum wage.

In short, they are hopeful - and confident - the share price will correct in time.

After the exchange was finished, i personally felt a lot more confident.

The main thing is , we need the Government to stop messing with the weather with their cloud seeding programme. Look at when the planes stopped flying and what beautiful weather we had...

As an aside, someone has been buying 10k shares every day for the last 3 or 4 days. With a 15k trade also thrown in. Small £ value but large in terms of PIER volume!!

Very unusual buying. But of course, pleased with it.

I'd rather have a small dividend proposed. Even the mention of say a small dividend in the next financial year would help the share price loads. Becoming a dividend paying stock always attracts.

A few director purchases would help too.
