Nightplace London is running out of space. Or so it feels. Community groups struggle to find a place to meet, businesses can’t find workspace and music venues are shutting their doors. All space is getting too expensive. But after 6pm many buildings sit empty, and the suburban high streets and stations are quiet. What if the problem was not the amount of space, but access to it? Embracing the opportunity of new technology and improved connectivity, the app Nightplace will allow Londoners access to more affordable space.

Space holders
Just search for the type of space you need, the area, and how long you need it for.
You will then be connected with a network of space holders showing reviews and space types. You can then book the perfect space.
Spaceholders include businesses, Councils and individuals. Space may be offered for income, to support community use or promote arts and innovation.
The London wide opportunity Nightplace would initially focus on a number of pilot areas around tube stations. This would add on the value of the Night Tube and take advantage of existing infrastructure. With stations at the heart of many neighbourhoods and hives of activity in the day, there is the opportunity to use them as catalysts for citywide nighttime transformation.
