On 26 November, Amsterdam chooses its next night mayor. Who are the candidates, what do they stand for, and how do they plan to represent the city’s night culture in the years to come? In this debate, the candidates go head to head on the issues that matter most to clubbers, night makers and residents: space for night culture, safety and wellbeing, accessibility, and the relationship with the municipality. The questions are prepared by the jury of the night mayor election, based on current affairs, the input gathered at Talk of the night #4 and questions from the audience. Come and meet the candidates, ask your questions and make up your mind before you vote. The outcomes of this evening will be shared with the city administration of Amsterdam.

Programme seriesTalk of the Night

Talk of the Night is a series where we start the conversation with Amsterdam on its night culture. What do citizens of Amsterdam think of our city’s nightlife? What is needed to create a more diverse, inclusive and vibrant night for all? Talk of the Night is a series organized by representatives of night citizens and night makers in the Amsterdam Night Council (ANC) in collaboration with Pakhuis de Zwijger. The ANC, including the night mayor of Amsterdam, represents the city’s night culture in conversations with the municipality of Amsterdam. In this series, we invite all clubbers, night makers and other citizens to join in and share their thoughts, wishes and worries on night culture in Amsterdam. All input will be shared with the city’s administration. Together, we work towards a meaningful night culture for generations to come.
