NIGHT FLOW
Four steps that reduce guesswork
- 1Choose one compact district, one main activity and a public meeting point before leaving.
- 2Check the venue or event's own channel for tonight's hours, admission, ID, reservation and bag rules.
- 3Set a leave time and a backup return before the first order or performance begins.
- 4Record the place you actually visited in Footprints; report a changed queue, closure or access rule to the community.
SAFETY & RETURN
Share landmarks, not your room
- Never leave a drink unattended or accept an opened drink from a stranger. Do not drive after drinking.
- Share only a public meeting point. Keep your accommodation address and live room details private.
- Use a licensed taxi, confirm the plate in the app and use 112 for an immediate police emergency.
CONSENT & ETIQUETTE
Drinks and second rounds are optional
- Ordering alcohol is optional. A clear no should end the offer, and nobody owes a drinking pace or a second round.
- Ask before photographing people, performers or another table; follow the venue's camera policy.
- Keep voices and groups clear of residential doors, pavements and station gates.
SAVED ON THIS DEVICE
Decide the way home before the night starts
We do not ask for an accommodation address. Save only public landmarks, then live-check the real service before leaving.OFFICIAL CHECKS
