Post-Lockdown Clubbing Worldwide

In some countries around the world, the pandemic caused only a mere blip in the social calendar. Currently, Europe still remains in the throes of an extended lockdown, with many venues silent for over a year, that it seems only mass inoculation will be able to revive. In China and Taiwan, the unmasked abandon of a packed dancefloor has been a mainstay since last April. In Israel, after over five million vaccinations, the nighttime economy is now nearly in full swing. Meanwhile, in Accra, Ghana, people congregate at open-air venues. Why is this? An overlap of government policies, virus policy precedents, and cultural conduct play a major role. Artists Amichay Matyas, Rui Ho, Tzusing, and Gafacci offer their personal, divergent perspectives on post-lockdown clubbing.
