"Places to socialise are a key part of the culture in our towns and cities"
"Liam Cagney's recent book exploring Berlin's club culture, Berghain Nights, captures the German capital in a moment of transition."
"Reading it made me think of the place nightlife holds in cities more broadly. It is a journey that passes through Detroit, Tokyo and even rural Ireland."
Nightlife venues and social places are integral to the cultural life of towns and cities. Berlin's club scene is experiencing a period of change that reflects wider urban transition. Nightlife operates as a lens on social dynamics, community formation, identity, and changing urban rhythms. Connections between nightlife cultures span global cities such as Detroit and Tokyo and reach into rural areas of Ireland. Attention to clubs and social spaces reveals how communal gathering places shape everyday life, migration of ideas and people, and the evolving character of cities. These places influence both local culture and perceptions of urban vitality.
