Irish nightclub scene on 'brink of collapse', say campaigners 

Nightclubs now account for only 0.6% of the country’s 14,085 active liquor licence.

Ireland’s nightclub scene is on the “brink of collapse”, with just over 80 nightclubs remaining across the country, according to a group campaigning for positive changes to Irish nightlife.

New figures from Give Us The Night found only 83 nightclubs remain open in Ireland to date, marking an 83% decline within this century.
