This report (and appendices) provides a summary of of the current-state and future needs of Australia's night time economy as it emerges from the COVID-19 pandemic.

It contains findings of the first Australian Night Time Industries Survey. The survey ran between the 18th and 30th of November 2021 and was distributed to night time economy businesses across Australia through city councils, industry bodies and key stakeholders.

The report aims to help Australia’s capital city councils to plan for the future needs of their night time economies, ensuring that the sector is in the best position to overcome the challenges and harness opportunities moving forward.
