Chichester parliamentary candidates from the Liberal Democrat, Labour and Green parties will also speak at the debate, which runs from 7pm until 9pm.
Bob Long, European Movement spokesman and compere for the evening, said: “Far from getting it done, a vote for Johnson and Farage will tie us into years more of wrangling with the EU and will put the NHS at grave risk.”
The interactive meeting will include short speeches, a panel discussion and an audience Question and Answer session.
Mr Long said: “Everyone is welcome.”
