Seizing the night

Organizers of talk shows have done the same. Previously, most talk shows had just one session per night that started at 7:30 pm. Now, many places have a second session at 9:30 pm.

Participating in sporting activities at night has also become a trend among young people. Activities like frisbee, football, cycling, and running are particularly popular from 8 pm to 10 pm.

The Shanghai Youth Nightlife Trend Report released by social platform Xiaohongshu showed that the search volume for night-time frisbee by Shanghai users increased by about 16 times last July compared to October 2021. The number of searches related to night cycling also increased by 388 percent.
