About

This document shares what our community wants for the Night Time Economy. We see the Night not just as a time but as an important part of our culture that helps local businesses and communities thrive.

The Night Manifesto is inspired by similar efforts around the world and the NSW Government’s Vibrancy Reforms to boost our nighttime economy.

The Night Manifesto brings together findings from different surveys and studies which capture the ideas and hopes of businesses, community groups, artists, musicians, and young people who see the current state of the Night and imagine what it could be.

The Night Manifesto - Share a story

The Night Manifesto seeks to unify the voices of businesses, community groups, artists and musicians, and younger generations that recognise the Night’s current condition but puts forward a vision of what we hope the Night can become. 

We invite you to share a story that expresses why you value the Night.

We are Sydney’s Connected Community.  


THE NIGHT MANIFESTO 


We value the Night. 

The Night is where we express ourselves, where we play, dance, sing, connect and create. 

The Night nurtures culture and cares for our community. 

 

We want the Night to be safe. 

Freedom follows safety. 

An active Night is safe.

A connected Night is safe. 

An inclusive Night is safe. 

 

We want the Night to be locally authentic. 

The Night is not contained.

We want to experience time together instead of transit.

We want our village centres to celebrate and reflect our diversity, passions, and interests.

 

We want the Night to be bold and creative. 

We need to change perceptions of what is possible.

We need to be bold with our partnerships and work collaboratively to create a thriving ecosystem. 

 

People bridge the hours between day and night. 

The Night does not need your sympathy, it needs your support. 

We are Sydney’s Connected Community.
