Promoted by Barcelona City Council’s Night Council, the forum is aimed at consolidating the Catalan capital as an international leader in the comprehensive management of life at night, with a focus that takes into account social, cultural and economic activity as well as people’s well-being and rest.

The Barcelona International Forum Night will be a space for exchanging knowledge and good practice between cities, institutions, academics and professionals specialising in fields such as mobility, health, security, coexistence and the economy.

The aim is to advance towards more sustainable, innovative and balanced urban models, capable of responding to the various uses and needs that converge during the night.

The various sessions will analyse some of the main challenges in contemporary night governance, such as the balance between nocturnal activity and local people’s rest, the role of culture in the construction of more lively and inclusive cities, mobility and night services and people’s safety, as well as new strategies and international models to rethink the urban night from an innovative and sustainable perspective.

Anyone interested in attending the event can sign up using the Barcelona International Night Forum website. With this initiative, the city strengthens its role as an international meeting point to rethink the future of the urban night and drive new forms of more inclusive and co-responsible governance.
