Are young people still going out, or has socialising moved online? This panel explores the changing habits of younger generations, examining the impact of social media, streaming, and rising living costs on nightlife and in-person gatherings.
Experts, industry leaders, and young voices will discuss whether traditional venues remain relevant, what barriers prevent young people from going out, and how events and spaces can evolve to stay engaging. From virtual connections to real-world experiences, the conversation will uncover the future of socialising and what it means for nightlife, entertainment, and community spaces in an increasingly digital world.
