The city, which is widely regarded as one of England's most liberal and LGBT-friendly, became the site of as many as seven assaults, according to the Rainbow Hub.
The charity's founder, Alan Flack, told local newspaper The Argus: "To this day we're not sure if they specifically targeted gay people or if it was just about robbery.
"It really took us by surprise. I've never seen attacks like that in such a short space of time.
"We all think of Brighton as being open and having pride but there's actually an underbelly to the city."
One man has been left in intensive care following a violent robbery.
Mr Flack added that the city's transgender population is "struggling with acceptance and recognition" from a community that's "20 years behind" on LGBT rights.
"It his them harder because we're still on the fringe of society. Humans are generally scared of things they don't understand."
