Many studies and data have been gathered about transgressive behaviour in clubs and bars or during concerts and festivals. The reality is often even worse than the figures would suggest. How big is this problem, and which subcultures or genres suffer most? Is transgressive behaviour reported more in certain contexts than in others?
In the last few years, we’ve seen many promising initiatives, and organisers frequently refer to their events as ‘safe spaces’. This shows that they’re putting more effort into the prevention of inappropriate behaviour. But is enough being done, or is it just a lot of talk? What do we really need to do to make concerts, festivals, clubs and bars fun and safe for everyone?
On November 26 at AB Club, together with a panel of experts who strive to make the music industry and nightlife safer and more inclusive, we hope to find answers to all those questions.
