Nominal night-time in-person spending in NSW

Created 16/08/2025

Updated 16/08/2025

Night-time in-person spend is a key indicator of the value of the night-time economy, particularly economic activity driven by consumers outside their homes at night across NSW. Perhaps more importantly, the night time in-person spend is also an indicator of people's participation in activities outside their homes at night, which supports social cohesion and personal wellbeing. The data is sourced from NSW Government Customer Experience Survey (CXS). The following caveats apply to the value of the night-time economy measures:

'Spend data' is provided by Westpac based on transactions captured by card payment terminals, adjusted for its market coverage and client profiles to reflect the population total. Cash transactions are not included. Figures are nominal (not adjusted for inflation)

'Annual spend' is the 'Moving Annual Total' (sum of previous 12 months' figures)
