Since the COVID-19 pandemic hit our world, millions of people miss nightlife and the dancefloor - the epicenter of many cherished elements in nightlife: Stimulation, music, the playing field of hedonistic self-expression, the escapism, meeting new people. Let us not forget the free expression of sexualities, identities, genders and races.
Historically, rave culture in nightlife has always been about community and a place for everyone to be themselves, a significant break from everyday life, which has shaped culture for decades.
'Safer space' policy prevents harassment and judgement in nightlife, especially helping minorities feel safe. It is an important foundation for any person to be able to freely express themselves and just enjoy nightlife.
