A Butlin&rsquo;s Big Weekender is the ultimate adults-only weekend away. Think of it as the full festival experience: incredible music including big-name headline acts, endless daytime activities, great food and drink, and your very best mates. No worries, no work, no mud or tents or wellies, but one of the best and biggest weekends of your life.<|}p>

WHAT'S A BIG WEEKENDER?

#ffffff

Think Big Weekenders are just about the booze and the music? Think again. Set over two floors and covering nearly 50,000 square feet, PLAYXPERIENCE at our Bognor Regis resort is an utterly immersive indoor playground for grown-ups with nine state-of-the-art experiences all under one roof.

Our favourite weekend pastime? Bottomless brunch! That’s why we’re introducing it on selected Big Weekenders.

From just £32.50pp for 2023 weekenders and £37.50pp for 2024, you’ll get two whole hours of unlimited prosecco, beer, cider, soft drinks and a selection of cocktails. And that’s not even the best part. You can mix and match your drinks! The food's pretty amazing, too.  Choose from a range of breakfast dishes, including American-style muffins loaded with crispy bacon, sausages or eggs. If brunch isn’t your thing, then opt to build your own burger instead. As you satisfy those mid-morning cravings, our resident DJ will spin diva anthems and party classics. Prosecco, anyone?
