<p>In an unfortunate announcement, <a href="https://www.sveta.ee/" class="ek-link">Sveta Baar,</a> a beloved nightclub and cultural hub in Tallinn, Estonia, will shut down its operations starting January 1st, 2024. The closure, attributed to many challenges the entertainment industry faces, is a stark reminder of the precarious state of nightlife establishments in the region.</p>



<p>Sveta Baar&#8217;s journey began in 2017 as a vintage shop and bar in the Telliskivi district, evolving over the years into one of Tallinn&#8217;s premier clubs and concert venues. The venue garnered accolades such as the &#8220;Venue of the Year&#8221; award at the Estonian Music Industry Awards and inclusion in the prestigious Liveurope venue network. It has been an integral part of the Tallinn Music Week programme since its inception.</p>



<p>Luke Teetsov-Faulkner, one of Sveta Baar&#8217;s founders, expressed gratitude to patrons, staff, and the community. &#8220;We have always been mission-driven and tried to do a good thing—supporting local people and the community, being principled, inclusive, and honest,&#8221; he stated. Teetsov-Faulkner emphasised that the closure is primarily due to economic factors exacerbated by COVID-19, energy and financial crises, restrictive laws, and gentrification.</p>



<p>The closure of Sveta Baar, while partly unique to its circumstances, reflects broader challenges faced by entertainment organisers and nightlife establishments across Estonia. According to bar managers, there needs to be more alignment between the rhetoric surrounding the importance of culture as an economic engine and the legislative and tax policies in place.</p>



<p>Roman Demtšenko, a partner in Sveta Baar, highlighted the widespread nature of the issue on Estonian National Television, stating, &#8220;Sveta is not the only one in this situation. Maybe there will be more news of other clubs closing their doors.&#8221;</p>



<p>In response to the growing crisis, local nightclubs and concert venues have joined forces to establish the <a href="https://chaoszine.net/key-tallinn-live-music-venue-nightclub-sveta-baar-to-shut-down-other-venues-to-form-the-estonian-nightlife-association/" class="ek-link">Estonian Nightlife Association (Eesti Ööelu Liit). </a></p>



<p>Elena Natale, founder of Tallinn&#8217;s renowned club <a href="https://hall.vision/" class="ek-link">HALL</a>, emphasised the need for unity: </p>



<blockquote class="wp-block-quote is-layout-flow wp-block-quote-is-layout-flow">
<p><strong>&#8220;The only appropriate response is to truly collectivise and come together, to fight for ourselves so live music and club culture can exist and thrive in Estonia.&#8221;</strong></p>
</blockquote>



<p>Helen Sildna, founder of Shiftworks and organiser of <a href="https://tmw.ee/" class="ek-link">Tallinn Music Week,</a> acknowledged the pivotal role played by venues like Sveta in nurturing music careers. She welcomed the initiative of the Estonian Nightlife Association, emphasising the importance of collective efforts to safeguard these cultural beacons.</p>



<p></p>



<p>Over its six-year existence, Sveta Baar hosted various club and live acts, contributing significantly to Tallinn&#8217;s music and cultural landscape. The venue also played a crucial role in fostering connections within the Estonian LGBTQ+ communities.</p>



<p>As Estonia faces the potential loss of more iconic venues, the formation of the Estonian Nightlife Association represents a united front in the fight to preserve the vibrancy and diversity of the country&#8217;s music and cultural scene. <br><br>The association&#8217;s immediate priorities include raising awareness and advocating for policy changes, explicitly seeking tax differentiation for live music venues and nightclubs. Natale highlighted the upcoming VAT tax hike, which raises concerns about the financial burden on cultural endeavours in Estonia.</p>

<p><br>Tartu, Estonia&#8217;s oldest city, will host The European Capital of Culture programme this year. The program&#8217;s theme is inspired by the artistic concept of the Arts of Survival, which will focus on the knowledge, skills, and values that will help humankind lead a good life in the future. The spotlight is on sustainability, co-creation, local uniqueness, science and technology. You can see the list of <a href="https://tartu2024.ee/en/programme/" class="ek-link">events here,</a> one of which is the <a href="https://www.unda.ee/" class="ek-link"><strong>unda</strong> festival</a>, which showcases local and underground club culture through discussions, dancing and an exhibition hosted at the<a href="https://tartu2024.ee/en/programme/" class="ek-link"> Estonian National Museum</a> and organised by <a href="https://hall.vision/" class="ek-link">HALL club</a>.</p>

<p>Half a decade ago, in 2018, a powerful idea took shape. It was initiated by two forward-thinking individuals, Lutz Leichsenring and Mirik Milan, who aimed to revolutionize city nightlife culture.</p>



<p>This idea grew into a reality, and thus, VibeLab was born. The primary objective of VibeLab was to provide local governments with insights into the scope and value of a city’s nightlife culture, helping them to understand and enhance their city&#8217;s nightlife.</p>



<h2 class="wp-block-heading">🧩 The Evolution of Nighttime Advocacy:&nbsp;<br>In the last five years, nighttime advocacy has witnessed significant growth. In the beginning, the concept was relatively unknown and unexplored.</h2>



<p>Gradually, Nighttime administration or Advocacy has garnered attention and gained momentum. Today, over 100 global cities have a nighttime office or are working on strategies to improve their nighttime spaces&#8217; safety, culture, and economy. This is a testament to the rise in the popularity and acceptance of nighttime advocacy, as cities worldwide have come to understand the gravitas of gathering spaces and their impact on social, cultural, and economic factors.</p>



<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Expansion and Growth</h2>



<p>Since its inception, VibeLab has expanded its reach and influence. Jane Slingo joined the team as the Director of VibeLab Asia Pacific, further broadening the company&#8217;s geographical reach. This expansion allowed VibeLab to tap into new markets and work with different cultures, enriching the company&#8217;s experience and expertise in the field.</p>



<h2 class="wp-block-heading"><strong>The Research Team Behind VibeLab’s Success</strong></h2>



<p>The success of VibeLab would not have been possible without the dedicated efforts of its research team. Diana Raiselis and Maarten van Breederode have been instrumental in the company&#8217;s growth, contributing their expertise and knowledge to the team.</p>



<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Project Management and Consultancy &amp; Research</h2>



<p>Overseeing the project management of our consultancy projects are Amir Salem and Thomas Scheele. Their meticulous planning, coordination, and execution of projects have ensured the successful completion of numerous key initiatives.</p>



<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Communications, Nighttime Advocacy Events, and Design</h2>



<p>Managing Communications and Nighttime Advocacy Events is another critical aspect of VibeLab&#8217;s operations. Jessie Dymond has taken the helm in this area, developing campaigns and programming conferences and events for the VibeLab network.</p>



<p>Adding to the creative aesthetics and visual appeal of our projects is Jack Waghorn, the talented graphic designer behind our microsites and reports. His innovative designs have played a crucial role in presenting our work and findings in an engaging and visually pleasing manner.</p>



<p>VibeLab&#8217;s journey over the past five years has been one of growth, learning, and success. The team is excited about the future and is committed to continuing its work in improving and advocating for urban nightlife culture worldwide.</p>



<p>Interested to read our research papers focused on cultural infrastructure mapping, safety, creative communities, strategies for nighttime cities, and more?  </p>

<h2 class="wp-block-heading"><br>Can &#8220;experimental programming&#8221; feed into cultural integration?</h2>



<h4 class="wp-block-heading"><br>Reflecting on the Panel Discussion: </h4>



<h4 class="wp-block-heading"><strong>&#8220;A Dancefloor Education&#8221; at Fotografiska Berlin</strong></h4>



<p class="has-text-align-left"><em>Date: Tuesday 3rd October<br>Time: 6:00 pm &#8211; 7:00 pm<br>Location: Fotografiska Berlin, Oranienburger Str. 54, 10117 Berlin, Germany<br>Free Event&nbsp;</em></p>



<p>In the recent panel discussion at Fotografiska Berlin, we brought together an inspiring group of individuals deeply invested in Berlin&#8217;s vibrant cultural scenes. The speakers shed light on crucial topics revolving around the evolution of club culture, experimental programming, and the role of cultural institutions in supporting displaced communities.</p>



<h2 class="wp-block-heading"><strong>Panelist Insights</strong></h2>



<p>The insights from the panelists, including moderator BLEACH, Lutz Leichsenring, Tjioe Meyer Hecken, Ukai Ndame, AZIZ, and Yousef Hammoudah, shed light on the multifaceted nature of Berlin&#8217;s cultural scene. Their experiences and perspectives provided a rich tapestry of ideas for navigating the evolving cultural landscape.</p>

<h2 class="wp-block-heading"><strong>Learning from Dance Floors: Bridging the Gap</strong></h2>



<p>One of the first themes explored was the valuable lessons that can be drawn from the dance floor and club communities. Moderator BLEACH highlighted the inclusive and safe environments that clubs foster, a spirit that museums and art spaces could certainly benefit from.</p>



<figure class="wp-block-image size-large"><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" width="683" height="1024" src="https://archive.nighttime.org/wp-content/uploads/2023/10/Tag-der-Clubkultur-Manu-Becerra-018-683x1024.jpg" alt="" class="wp-image-6949" srcset="https://archive.nighttime.org/wp-content/uploads/2023/10/Tag-der-Clubkultur-Manu-Becerra-018-683x1024.jpg 683w, https://archive.nighttime.org/wp-content/uploads/2023/10/Tag-der-Clubkultur-Manu-Becerra-018-200x300.jpg 200w, https://archive.nighttime.org/wp-content/uploads/2023/10/Tag-der-Clubkultur-Manu-Becerra-018-768x1152.jpg 768w, https://archive.nighttime.org/wp-content/uploads/2023/10/Tag-der-Clubkultur-Manu-Becerra-018-1024x1536.jpg 1024w, https://archive.nighttime.org/wp-content/uploads/2023/10/Tag-der-Clubkultur-Manu-Becerra-018-1365x2048.jpg 1365w, https://archive.nighttime.org/wp-content/uploads/2023/10/Tag-der-Clubkultur-Manu-Becerra-018-scaled.jpg 1707w" sizes="auto, (max-width: 683px) 100vw, 683px" /></figure>



<figure class="wp-block-pullquote"><blockquote><p><em>“There was no such a party where you can hear more than African music. Nowhere. There were always small parties in Germany, but there was not such a big impact like now. So you can imagine doing this party we didn&#8217;t know what was like ahead of us. We just did it.” </em></p><cite><em><strong>Ukai From Freak D’L Afrique</strong></em></cite></blockquote></figure>



<h2 class="wp-block-heading"><strong>Nurturing Local Talent: A Shared Responsibility</strong></h2>



<p>The panellists delved into the importance of established institutions nurturing emerging local talent. They challenged the practice of consistently booking A-list performers, emphasizing the reciprocal benefits of supporting grassroots artists.</p>



<h2 class="wp-block-heading"><strong>Supporting Displaced Identities: A Call for Inclusivity</strong></h2>



<p>The discussion further explored the notion of giving a platform to fluid identities often displaced by mainstream capitalism. The speakers echoed the need for cultural institutions to be spaces of acceptance, catering to a diverse range of voices.</p>



<h2 class="wp-block-heading"><strong>Dialogue, Collaboration, and Community Empowerment</strong></h2>



<p>The panellists emphasized fostering dialogue and collaboration between cultural institutions, communities, and local governments. They believe this is a critical step towards community empowerment and positive change.</p>



<figure class="wp-block-image size-large"><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" width="1024" height="683" src="https://archive.nighttime.org/wp-content/uploads/2023/10/Tag-der-Clubkultur-Manu-Becerra-020-1024x683.jpg" alt="" class="wp-image-6951" srcset="https://archive.nighttime.org/wp-content/uploads/2023/10/Tag-der-Clubkultur-Manu-Becerra-020-1024x683.jpg 1024w, https://archive.nighttime.org/wp-content/uploads/2023/10/Tag-der-Clubkultur-Manu-Becerra-020-300x200.jpg 300w, https://archive.nighttime.org/wp-content/uploads/2023/10/Tag-der-Clubkultur-Manu-Becerra-020-768x512.jpg 768w, https://archive.nighttime.org/wp-content/uploads/2023/10/Tag-der-Clubkultur-Manu-Becerra-020-1536x1024.jpg 1536w, https://archive.nighttime.org/wp-content/uploads/2023/10/Tag-der-Clubkultur-Manu-Becerra-020-2048x1365.jpg 2048w" sizes="auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px" /></figure>



<h2 class="wp-block-heading"><strong>Inspiring Collaborations: Success Stories with Communities</strong></h2>



<p>The session provided concrete examples of successful collaborations between cultural institutions and local communities. These collaborations enriched the cultural landscape and helped uplift the communities involved.</p>



<h2 class="wp-block-heading"><strong>Ethics in Gentrifying Areas: A Complex Challenge</strong></h2>



<p>A particularly sensitive topic was the ethical and social responsibilities of cultural institutions operating in gentrifying areas. The speakers tackled this challenge head-on, discussing strategies to ensure a positive impact on the community, such as creating free or low-cost open days, and including locals in the programming of the events.</p>



<h2 class="wp-block-heading"><strong>Looking Forward: A Call to Action</strong></h2>



<p>As we reflect on this engaging discussion, we&#8217;re reminded of our collective responsibility in shaping the future of Berlin&#8217;s cultural institutions. We must continue to champion experimental programming and community empowerment, ensuring that Berlin remains a city that celebrates diversity, creativity, and inclusivity.</p>

<p>Amsterdam is embarking on an exciting new chapter in its cultural history with the launch of the Night Culture Implementation Agenda <a href="https://amsterdam.raadsinformatie.nl/document/13015308/1/Uitvoeringsagenda+Nachtcultuur+2023-2026?fbclid=PAAaY7jh6O_u9GGReeK2Zj5ISAJrhmpBtcY1MGuhJoQ68VJ1gRF1Y94SXizos_aem_Afd0O1cLnHDbWKpkMumAHEEc-B1A2gMQvJHafNPeDOy1dHASPC7QeIUK-nCPlMzKYeg">(currently only available in Dutch)</a>. Building on the <a href="https://www.amsterdam.nl/en/leisure/night-vision/">Night Vision&#8217;s</a> recommendations and heartfelt desires, this comprehensive agenda aims to breathe life into the city&#8217;s nighttime scene by translating ideas into concrete actions.&nbsp;</p>



<p>This initiative is allocating significant resources, with a commitment of 1 million euros dedicated explicitly to Amsterdam&#8217;s night culture. This funding will support a wide range of programs related to night culture, developing night culture breeding grounds, and establishing new night culture locations in the vibrant neighbourhoods of Zuidoost and Nieuw-West. This is a unique moment in time for Amsterdam to build on the 24 hour licensing schemes that are already in place and to put emphasis on the value of events such as ADE and the city in general.&nbsp;</p>



<p>We at <a aria-label="VibeLab, (opens in a new tab)" href="https://vibe-lab.org/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener" class="ek-link">VibeLab,</a> a platform dedicated to celebrating and supporting nighttime culture, applaud this initiative as a significant step towards enhancing Amsterdam&#8217;s cultural landscape, especially as Mirik Milan, our co-founder was the night mayor of Amsterdam between 2012- 2018.</p>



<p>In addition to these initiatives, the Night Culture Implementation Agenda includes a pioneering pilot program for a sound insulation fund. This program aims to address potential noise-related challenges, striking a balance between vibrant nightlife and ensuring the comfort and well-being of residents in nighttime areas.</p>



<p>Recognising the importance of nurturing young talent within the night culture scene, Amsterdam,in collaboration with the national government have set aside 1.2 million euros for talent development focused on young people. This investment is expected to foster new artistic endeavours and innovative initiatives, ensuring a dynamic and vibrant future for the city&#8217;s cultural nighttime offerings.</p>



<p>A vital aspect of the city&#8217;s approach to the Night Culture Implementation Agenda is the emphasis on collaboration and consultation with relevant departments and districts. Involving the sector as much as possible in the implementation process is a top priority.</p>



<blockquote class="wp-block-quote is-layout-flow wp-block-quote-is-layout-flow">
<figure class="wp-block-pullquote"><blockquote><p>&#8220;As a municipality, we are committed to fulfilling our role in a way that values the interests of both day and night. Working with social partners, area developers, and the cultural sector, we aim to give night culture the recognition it deserves as a vital part of Amsterdam&#8217;s cultural life.&#8221;</p><cite>says Touria Meliani, Amsterdam’s Councilor for Arts and Culture.</cite></blockquote></figure>
</blockquote>



<p>Amsterdam&#8217;s Night Culture Implementation Agenda sets a promising precedent for other cities to follow, underscoring the vital role of a thriving night culture in shaping a city&#8217;s identity and enriching its cultural fabric.</p>



<p>We at VibeLab and our advocacy platform ”Nighttime” encourage everyone interested in understanding the significance and value of a lively night culture to read the <a href="https://www.creative-footprint.org/" class="ek-link">Creative Footprint Studies.</a> The shared experiences and passion for the city, the night, and the safety, diversity of its inhabitants resonate deeply with our community and all of the work we do.

<p>Great news for DIY organisers and small clubs in Germany! Initiative Musik, Germany&#8217;s prominent music funding organisation, has introduced the<a href="https://www.initiative-musik.de/live-500/" class="ek-link"> &#8220;Live 500</a>&#8221; program, a new initiative aimed at providing financial support to small and medium-sized music venues and regional promoters. </p>



<p>This program seeks to encourage a diverse music program by offering incentives for including emerging artists and less popular or experimental genres. With the <a href="https://www.initiative-musik.de/live-500/" class="ek-link">&#8220;Live 500</a>&#8221; funding, Initiative Musik aims to address the challenges that live music clubs, and organisers face in the post-pandemic era, where rising costs and inflation have made planning and executing affordable music events increasingly challenging.</p>



<p>The <a href="https://www.initiative-musik.de/live-500/">&#8220;Live 500</a>&#8221; program specifically targets live music events catering to a maximum of 250 paying club visitors.&nbsp;</p>



<p>The maximum admission price is 20 or 25 euros, depending on the category. Through this funding initiative, concerts can receive a subsidy of either 500 euros or 1,000 euros per event.&nbsp;</p>



<ul class="wp-block-list">
<li>Fifty per cent of the subsidy is allocated to the performing musicians as a fee subsidy.<br></li>



<li>The remaining fifty per cent is intended to cover the production costs of the music clubs or regional organisers.&nbsp;<br></li>



<li>Applicants can request up to 12,000 euros for a maximum of 12 or 24 concerts, all of which must be scheduled before June 30, 2024.<br></li>



<li>One significant aspect of Live 500 is its emphasis on diverse program planning for supported live music events.<br></li>



<li>By doing so, the program aims to foster greater cultural participation for underrepresented artists in the live music scene.</li>
</ul>



<p>Additionally, a regional quota has been implemented to ensure fair distribution of funds across all federal states, allowing for a more equitable allocation of resources.</p>



<p>Developed in collaboration with the professional support of LiveMusikCommission eV and coordinated with the Federal Jazz Conference, Live 500 is a support program backed by Initiative Musik. The Music Initiative has made Live 500 possible through project funds provided by the Federal Government Commissioner for Culture and the Media.</p>



<p>Interested parties can visit the Initiative Musik website to learn more about the application process and award procedures. Applications for the Live 500 are expected to be open until 7/31/2023 (11:59 p.m.) They recommend registering in the funding portal in advance, before 27th July. The application phase for Live 500 will be open until July 31, 2023, and must be submitted in German.&nbsp;</p>



<p>Initiative Musik&#8217;s Live 500 funding program is set to inject much-needed support and diversity into the live music industry, offering a lifeline to small and medium-sized venues and promoters as they navigate the challenges posed by the post-pandemic landscape. As the music scene aims to recover and rebuild, Live 500 serves as a beacon of hope, encouraging the continuation of vibrant, low-threshold music offerings and the promotion of emerging talent across Germany&#8217;s cultural landscape.<br><br><a href="https://www.initiative-musik.de/" class="ek-link">More info here</a></p>

<p>Nashville’s independent music venues—widely understood as a core part of the city’s identity—are threatened. Nashville Metro Council requested an inventory of venues to understand better what’s happening and what can be done.

<p>This project’s core purpose is to understand better the ecosystem of independent music venues (IMVs). In the process, the project will detail the threats Independent music venues face, seek to understand the needs and aspirations of the region’s creative community, and propose policy approaches for preserving and growing Independent Music venues and the businesses, neighbourhoods, and districts around them.</p>

<p><em>&#8220;One of the most significant issues is that nightlife advocates often understand things to be true in their practice and experience, but don’t have data to advocate for what they see. Policymakers often want to see evidence-based data, pilots, and so on. Creative Footprint provides the beginning of a baseline. We use scores here, but it’s not necessarily about comparing cities to say that this one is better or worse than that one. It’s more about, OK in 2023, this is the score. Montreal did very strongly on aspects of Community Content and Space. It didn’t do nearly as strongly on what we call Framework Conditions: policies, transit, access to information, governance, and so on. As Montreal puts this nightlife strategy into place for the next years, that section is where the “score” can be increased.&#8221;</em> </p>

<p>Our team has been in Montreal to launch the latest Creative Footprint Report and for the MTL Night Summit that took place on May 17th and 18th at the PHI Center, bringing together creative minds who wish to learn more about nightlife cultures and the international initiatives that support their development. From tonight to the 21st, NON-STOP 24/24 takes place at Pavillon du Grand Quai of the Port of Montreal.</p>
