In a recent announcement by the Brighton and Hove planning committee, the 45m high structure will be located 100 m east of Brighton Pier and the opening hours will between 10am to 11pm daily. 


At capacity the attraction will carry 280 passengers in 36 cabins for a ride that lasts around 11 minutes. The ride will give the most impressive views up and down the Brighton and Hove seafront and will help position the city of Brighton and Hove as one of the number one tourist hot spots in the UK, increasing on its 12 million tourists.


Developers say the permission for the structure will only be for 5 years and a condition of the consent is that it must be taken down in May 2016.
