Brighton was a non-metropolitan district in East Sussex, England.
It was abolished on 1 April 1997 and replaced by Brighton and Hove.
Following the 1983 election, one-third of the council (one seat in each of the 16 three-member wards) was up for election each year, other than county council election years.
There was no election in 1996: the councillors due for election in that year had their term of office extended up to the end of the borough council in April 1997.
