Challenges and opportunities for industry

Lockouts and lockdowns are a thing of the past. Now is industry’s chance to create a new type of night time reality or else we’ll miss the opportunity to shape the night time economy that we want.

Together, we can address the challenges facing industry:

  • Declining audiences due to changing consumer behaviour and competing entertainment options.
  • Rising operating costs across goods, insurance premiums, alcohol excise and much more.
  • Cost of living crisis drastically cutting consumer discretionary spending.
  • Licensing and planning hurdles, especially for hospitality operators, arts and events.
  • Workplace and staff management and raising the standards for industry.
  • Policing and security requirements.
