The City of Dallas has joined the ranks of American cities that have embraced the potential for their nighttime and sociable economies.
Dallas’ formalized interest in the nighttime economy began in 2015 with two grassroots political advocacy initiatives which lead to the creation of 24HourDallas, a non-profit organization.
Accelerated by the work of the consultancy, Responsible Hospitality Institute, and cemented by buy-in from city of Dallas elected officials and staff, Dallas reached a new milestone in the fall of 2023 when it approved hiring an individual who is dedicated to serve as the internal specialist for the Texas city’s nighttime ecosystem.
In this episode of Nighttime Economy, the podcast from 24HourNation, we speak with that newly hired expert, Nathan Armstrong, and learn what strides he has already made … and has planned.
