The Night-Time Economy Strategy Template has been prepared in response to feedback received from council officers as part of the Local Government NTE Toolkit workshops, held by the Office of the 24 Hour Economy Commissioner in 2024. The document provides an overview of the new NSW 24-Hour Economy Strategy and how this may be reflected in a local night-time or 24-hour economy strategy.
It then walks you through what a typical local night-time or 24 hour economy strategy may look like, with a checklist of key steps to take and highlighting best practice examples from existing council strategies for guidance and inspiration for each component of a strategy. A list of existing council night-time strategies and studies, along with resources and glossary, are available at the end.
