Trend Hunter's Chief Client Officer, Courtney Scharf explores the pandemic's influence on drinking and club culture, offering examples of adaptations from many businesses in the industry.
In "What's New in Alcohol and Nightlife," an episode of the platform's Now Trending series, Courtney showcases the motivations of the younger generation. The video dives into low-alcohol clubs that prioritize experiences over drinks, the role of alcohol in the new technology age, and how cannabis-infused CPG brands in North America refresh their products to better appeal to the modern consumer.
Courtney dives into the insight Alt Nightclub, which offers examples of nightclubs in the metaverse, digital nightclubs, and art gallery-turned-nightclubs, which all gained steam over the last two years due to extenuating circumstances. These new digital experiences have become integral parts of Gen Z's socializing patterns, as this age group, in particular, was pushed into digital-only and socially-distanced experiences during their late teens and early 20s.
