#LHBYNIGHT - A new nightlife Charter !

A new nightlife Charter to ensure the serenity and quality of evenings in Le Havre.

Published on

On Friday, February 10th, 2023, the members of Le Havre's Nightlife Council signed the new nightlife quality charter at the invitation of Édouard PHILIPPE, Mayor of Le Havre.

A first Nightlife Charter had been in place since 2012, but over the past 10 years, Le Havre's attractiveness has grown, the number of students has increased significantly (+23%) and new events have been created.

With this new Charter, the members of the Nightlife Council wished to emphasize the prevention of risky behaviors related to extreme alcoholism, addictions and mobility, as well as the fight against all forms of harassment.

A port town is not a ghost town. It is a city that lives, that moves. If we want to ensure that there is a quality nightlife in Le Havre, we must talk to each other and implement actions that allow us to move forward together. That's the whole purpose of this charter and I'm very glad about it." Édouard PHILIPPE.

WHO are the signers and WHAT will this Charter be used for ?

WHO are the signers and WHAT will this Charter be used for ? 
The nightlife council includes the Fed'LH, the Student Federation, CHEERS, the Conférence Havraise des Etablissements d'Enseignement et de Recherche du Supérieur and all the actors of the nightlife.

The Fed'LH brings together student associations, which are committed to offering responsible events and disseminating good practices.

For their part, nightlife establishments (restaurants, bars, discotheques), by signing the charter, receive the "nightlife" label. As such, they are committed to promoting and supporting this prevention approach.

What are the concrete benefits ? 

The members of the students' offices, the signatory managers and the staff of the signatory establishments will be able, for example, to benefit from training/awareness-raising courses on risk prevention and reduction, life-saving gestures and first aid...

Drinking establishments will also be able to benefit from promotional and risk prevention tools (breathalyzers, condoms, earplugs, glass caps...).
