NewsBy Lauren BowesThe nightlife taskforce for London has published a roadmap for supporting the capital’s on-trade and made recommendations to keep the city alive around the clock. Mayor Sadiq Khan set up the nightlife taskforce in February 2025 to address the issues facing the capital’s nightlife businesses. The first recommendation area is the creation and support of a new nightlife commission, comprising experts from across the city’s nightlife sector. In other financial recommendations, the roadmap suggests the creation of a Nightlife Future Fund to provide startup funding for new ideas. In a survey, the taskforce asked Londoners what they’d most like to change about the capital’s nightlife.
