Mood Reports
Original reports from the Mood catalogue - every venue scored across twelve dimensions, every night indexed. Stated methods, open data, free to cite.
Athens is quietest in August - 4.2% of its year - and busiest in November at 11.4%, the opposite of the tourist calendar. Greek cities run 1.98× as busy in winter as in summer; the Dutch cities invert it at 0.9×. Plus why Amsterdam peaks in October, and which cities can honestly be measured at all.
Read the reportGetting into an Athens club costs €10–15, and it includes your first drink - so once a €11 cocktail is priced out, the room itself costs €0–4. Every venue quotes its own number. Plus what the rest of a night out costs across 8 cities: the same round runs €18.52 in Bucharest and €56.04 in London.
Read the indexFrom 12,187 real Mood users who told us their age and favourite genres: Hip-Hop leads under-25s at 50%, while Techno runs 6% above average among 45+. Plus country signatures, a Gen Z vs Millennial head-to-head, and how it checks against Eurostat, IFPI and SNEP.
Read the reportA seven-city atlas of the queer night, mapped neighbourhood by neighbourhood. Amsterdam is roughly 2.8× as queer-dense as Athens by share of its own catalogue - yet Athens folds 95% of its queer night into a single district. Compared only as shares, never raw counts.
