Nights in are on the rise, with new research from Tesco revealing much of the nation will be changing how they spend time with family and friends this autumn/winter. Two in five people (41%) are planning to stay at home, and a further third (31%) say they will significantly reduce how often they go out.
Collectively, UK adults spend £9.3 billion per month on nights out including dining out, trips to the pub, cinema, gigs and theatre, bowling, crazy golf and nightclubs – that equates to £177.71 on average per person.
The nation’s top night out is dining at a restaurant, with the average adult doing so three times a month and spending £35 each time, which equates to £2 billion collectively. This rises to seven times a month for Gen Z and Millennials. However, just over one tenth of the nation (11%) says they spend too much money on nights out.
