A major tax cut for pubs and clubs has sparked outrage in the nightlife industry after the Treasury clarified it only applies to “social clubs” — not nightclubs. Confusion erupted when even government insiders thought nightclubs were included, based on the Prime Minister’s initial wording. Industry leaders are furious, calling it a misinterpretation that leaves venues like nightclubs out in the cold — especially as three clubs close every week since March 2020. With the sector warning that major clubs could vanish by 2030, the Treasury’s confirmation that nightclubs are excluded has left many feeling betrayed and desperate for real support.
