A nine-day clubbing festival kicked off in Shanghai on Saturday night to perk up the city’s nightlife economy. As a key event of the second Shanghai Night Festival, the clubbing festival, hosted by the Shanghai Bar Profession Association under the guidance of the city’s commerce commission, will entice more residents and tourists to enjoy the city’s energetic nightlife, thus boosting the nightlife economy and further pumping up urban vitality.
From June 12 to June 20, the festival is joining hands with ten hot clubs in the city to set up special stages for shows. Some thousand businesses are running sales promotions during the period, while the ride-hailing giant Didi Chuxing will deploy more cabs to hot spots and offer coupons for night time orders.
The association also rolled out a “modern night bus” campaign, designing special bus routes passing major nightlife landmarks, including the Bund Finance Center, Yuyuan Garden Malls, Xintiandi, Sinan Mansions, TX Huaihai Youth Energy Center and Waitanyuan.
Getting on the bus with a single pass, visitors can pick up a free beer and enjoy several galas in one trip, including the Clubbing Festival, an electronic music carnival, a Craft Beer Festival, and music parties. A number of discounts at hot night time spots are also offered to everyone with a bus pass.
