The increasing popularity of late-night partying is expected to drive the growth of the bars and nightclubs market moving forward. Late-night partying, which involves social activities and entertainment extending into the early morning, is popular due to social dynamics, diverse entertainment options, lifestyle and cultural factors, and flexible work and school schedules. This trend is crucial for bars and nightclubs as it boosts revenue, attracts a varied and engaged customer base, and strengthens the venue's brand and competitive edge. For example, in July 2024, Wordmatrix, a US-based data aggregator, reported that the nightclub scene is largely frequented by younger individuals, with 65% of patrons under 35 years old. Women account for 60% of the attendees, and the average patron age ranges from 21 to 35. Consequently, the growing trend of late-night partying is fueling the expansion of the bars and nightclubs market.
