Museum Lates have been thriving in the UK since the first regular event at the V&A in 2001. The night-time economy is now worth £66bn a year in the UK and A Culture of Lates will explore the contribution museums and galleries can make to grow this increasingly important sector of the UK economy over the next five years.
Produced and chaired by Culture24, curators of the twice-yearly, UK-wide Museums at Night festival, the Culture of Lates conference will develop themes set out in recently published reports from a three-part study into Lates, A Culture of Lates.
This is an amazing opportunity to be associated with the fast-growing strand of museum events most targeted at a new, young audience and to be mingle and meet with museum leaders from all over the country.

Culture24 is an arts charity based in Brighton, which supports arts and heritage organisations to have the confidence, imagination and skills to connect meaningfully with audiences of today. We are a small and dynamic team of writers, thinkers, producers and publishers who love arts and culture, understand digital and believe that cultural organisations have a vital place in a better world.
We are best known for publishing great websites about culture; producing the successful Museums at Night festival of after-hours openings, and leading Let’s Get Real, the collaborative action research project involving cultural organisations across the UK and Europe. We also aggregate and share data about thousands of cultural events exhibitions and venues with a range of partners including the BBC.
Culture24 provides platforms, networks and safe, collaborative spaces within which cultural organisations can work together to reach and engage audiences, benchmark, experiment and learn. We broker partnerships and strategic opportunities that it would be near impossible to access as individual organisations.
