How many London nightlife venues have a 24-hour license?

Back in 2010, 1,000 venues across the UK had all-day, all-night licenses, with 91 of those in the capital. These days, however, a measly 58 24-hour licenses are left. Back in 2024, the number of 24-hour gyms in the city officially surpassed the number of 24-hour bars and clubs. Fortunately, the tide could be about to change. Sadiq Khan's independent London Nightlife Taskforce, which was established in 2025, has put together an action plan to bring London's club scene back from the dead. The 'comprehensive' plan was unveiled in January and includes everything from changes to night-time transport and rethinking approaches to noise monitoring to a Nightlife Future Fund.
