For Night-Time Economy Businesses and Workers

Kilkenny County Council invites you to become part of a network of change by taking part in free online training focused on safety and best practices to enhance Kilkenny's Night-Time Economy. 

Safety remains a key priority within Ireland's Night-Time Economy Taskforce Report. Recognising the unique challenges faced by businesses and individuals operating in the evening and night-time, Kilkenny County Council is taking proactive steps to enhance safety by providing a suite of online training to support businesses across the city.
The training is relevant to businesses and individuals operating within Kilkenny's night-time economy, including pubs, restaurants, hotels, nightclubs, theatres, cultural venues, festivals, event organisers, gyms, sporting organisations, taxi companies/drivers, and more.

The Department of Culture, Communications and Sport funds this night-time economy initiative.

The report of the Night-Time Economy Taskforce, published in September 2021, is a Cross-Government Report containing 36 actions across a broad range of issues associated with the Night-Time Economy.

Ireland's Night-Time Economy pilots include Dublin City, Cork City, Limerick City, Galway City, Kilkenny, Drogheda, Sligo, Buncrana, and Longford Town.
