From nation, to city, to brand, city hall to hotel, Global Cities After Dark unravels what makes first-class Night Time Economy, and what solutions we have at hand to counter some of the major challenges of today in nightlife.
 
Mirik Milan, Night Mayor Amsterdam said on Global Cities After Dark: “Being a part of Global Cities After Dark is like a dream come true, because by sharing ideas for a safe and vibrant nightlife, it empowers bottom up initiatives after dark that contribute and strengthen creative cities around the world. It will be one of the most innovative forums from a city planning perspective because global thought leaders will gather in Sydney to discuss what strategies can be put in place for creating liveable inclusive cities with high quality of life and culture for everyone.”
 
Global Cities After Dark is a three-year project, to be held in Sydney each November from 2017 to 2019. The inaugural event will feature five international guests from Berlin, London, Amsterdam, Ibizaand Seattle joined by an inspirational mix of specialists from various fields that are essential to positive night time culture – creative industries, gastronomy, health and safety, mobility and public transport, legislation, urban planning, art and music.

The electronic music sector knows too well the impact that colourful and thriving nightlife can have on economy and culture for any city or region.
