Join the movement of people who care about saving nightlife, by helping make nightlife safe! Help celebrate our mission to protect and support the positive [social, economic, and cultural] contributions of the nightlife industry.
Our industry is under constant threat. From being soft targets for terrorism and increasing violence, blaming patron drug abuse on venues/ promoters, banning or placing moratoriums on EDM-related events, strict licensing laws, costly operating requirements, new housing built close to existing venues without soundproofing – have all played a role in eroding our nightlife.
​
Our vision is to create a safe and vibrant nightlife community. By educating and training owners, managers, servers, bartenders, entertainers and security guards on quality of service standards; we can make our jobs easier to hire people, lower liability, risk, and calls for police service.
​
Join our growing membership of influencers at the legislative, local improvement, and development levels that will share solutions to becoming a successful asset in your city. Network with seasoned industry professionals, who will examine research, provide insights, industry training, important licensing information and regulatory changes.

Hospitality owners working in collaboration with neighbors, key stakeholders, community partners and city officials will keep a sustainable, safe, and thriving nightlife economy alive.
