Tell City Council to support nightlife!
Use the link below to email all of our Councilmembers to tell them you support the proposal for a Nighttime Economy Office in this week’s budget talks.
This new office would be an advocate for arts, nightlife and hospitality inside the government – helping to keep venues from closing, getting financial relief to artists, promoting good relationships with neighbors and government departments. Our peer cities all have an office like this, it’s time Philly steps up!

A nighttime Economy office would be very helpful in the city maximizing the cultural and economic value these businesses serve. And help the City to better understand needs and operations.
How wonderful it would be to have an advocate for arts, nightlife and hospitality inside the government – helping to keep venues from closing, getting financial relief to artists, promoting good relationships with neighbors and government departments. Our peer cities all have an office like this, it’s time Philly steps up!
Having worked in the “nighttime economy” my entire career and having served the daytime economy it would be great to finally be recognized and represented by something other than our huge tax contribution.
Please address this important issue in the contemporary cultural center that Philadelphia has become. We need leadership and commitment.
