Brighton has been named the best place for a night out in the UK, followed by Bath and York – while Slough, Basildon and Bracknell scored quite low on Public First’s Night Out Index
The best place to enjoy a night out in the UK is a popular seaside resort and the worst one is a well-known town just miles from London, according to a new survey.
Research by Public First looked at the size of the night-time economy across more than 100 major towns and cities in England and Wales.
It found that when it comes to regional variations, there is more than a simplistic North-South divide or even a rich-poor divide.
Towns around London, such as Bracknell and High Wycombe, scored relatively poorly on the Night Out Index, while places in the North such as Wakefield and Halifax scored well.
