"Brits still want to go out. Nightlife is vital for wellbeing, social connection, and community: 65% say it lifts their mood, 59% say it enhances quality of life, and 61% value night-time events as personal cultural experiences. But rising costs are shutting many out, with 76% citing high ticket and drink prices as a barrier, hitting families and lower-income earners hardest."
"Safety is a major concern. Only 60% of people feel safe late at night, with poor lighting, isolated streets, and minimal policing leaving many at risk. Transport options are scarce after midnight, and the Taxi Tax is making even private options expensive. 68% say safer transport would make them more likely to go out."
A nationally representative survey of 2,009 UK consumers aged 18–64 reveals widespread pressure on the night-time economy. Large majorities report inadequate government support (73%) and rising costs pricing people out (76%). Nightlife is seen as important for wellbeing and quality of life, with 65% saying it boosts mood and 59% saying it enhances life quality. Safety and transport are key barriers: only 60% feel safe late at night and 68% would go out more if transport were safer. Affordability hits families and lower-income groups hardest, and only 33% think government understands hospitality challenges.
