Absolutely not. Most of the people wasting their money away at the VIP tables are like 30+ anyways (at least at the clubs I've been to). You just have to find the *right* bars if you don't want to be around college students or people who have fake IDs.
Thank God. I have read multiple posts about mid twenty something's being too old to go out or growing out of that phase and it made me feel like I missed out because I hadn't even started. I'm 26 and never been but I'm finally starting to get that itch to try it out just once. The idea of being the old person in the room terrifies me.
Same age as you and yeah nah this is the prime clubbing/bar hopping age! Going dancing, even if you aren’t that good at it like me, is such a blast. Especially when you get a few drinks in you
I'll be 25 in a few months, and yeah I feel pretty tired. It's been a thing for me, just getting progressively burnt out. Having a hard time make ends meet between the car loan, rising rent, inflation, price gouging, low wages and egregious healthcare costs. I would love to go hang out catch up with friends but my reality and circumstances is fucking depressing as I wouldn't even be able to afford it.
it's more that I experienced those clubs and have been there multiple times for the past years( minus covid) and I got to the point that it's no fun for me anymore(maybe it's because I live in a small city) and it's just spending money and watching all those 19 year olds
Because we partied decently hard from 19-22 here in Canada since the drinking age in most provinces and territories is 19. We now have full time jobs and careers, don’t have time nor the want to go out partying every weekend. Never been to a club but all my parties were out in the woods doing stupid shit lol. Done with those days. At 24 I want to buy a home with my gf, settle down, travel, and eventually have kids (later on obviously)
Im 26 and if don't feel like that. Im saving that for my 30s (settle and stuff)
Of course I have an adult job but that doesn't mean I can't have fun (not in clubs)
I feel like people of our generation, acts like if being older than 25 you can't live anymore and have to be depressed and tired most of the time.
I mean you don’t have to feel like that lol, not everyone is the same. And I’m not saying that we can’t have fun anymore or any sort of doom and gloom. But the term of “fun” can change over time, you can still have fun while having a couple beers with your friends around the campfire, or going to a bar with your friends, or traveling with your SO and/or friends etc. nobody is claiming that we can’t have fun anymore, the fun just changes. I still play beer league hockey and two pitch with my friends, I drive my Jeep off-road with my friends, I don’t need clubs or acting like an idiot getting smashed every weekend to have fun🤙🏻
>But the term of “fun” can change over time
This is so true man, I have fun nowadays doing things like assembling furniture or wiring up my speakers. Overtime the brain gets alot less "needy" for instant action and small trivial things become "interesting".
I also don't feel like that it's just that Im kinda too old to act all naive and stupid and partying with no limits and too young to watch all those couples acting like they're all adults and scheduling when we meet like it's an appointment
nah u definitely not too old to act all naive and stupid, if ur gettin ur money do wtf u want. if you were in your 30s youd cringe reading 24 year olds acting like this lmao
It all depends I guess, I’m just over acting all naive and stupid as well. I’m planning for the future, buying a home, investing etc. I’ll take a Netflix and chill night in with my gf over going to the club any day of the week.
You don't have to act naive and stupid. The best part that being in your 20s is that your mature enough to have fun without problem.
Actually I started drinking at 22 and I'm very cautious with alcohol
I still drink on special occasions but my body doesn't handle it as well as I did at a younger age. I haven't been to a bar or club in while because I just don't have much interest in that scene anymore.
Never been to a club I’m 23 I don’t feel like most people in our age range were the club types it’s the older millennials 30s + In the early-mid 2000s maybe even early 2010s but most of us were still in grade school. They made clubbing seem cool but after the pulse night club shooting I think it died down. The youngest millennials and gen z lacked the social skills for all of that but I wouldn’t be surprised if core zoomers are bringing clubbing back.
We’re the Netflix and chill generation. My older sister (95) and I prefer to stay in the house and my older brother pretends to be a partier because his friends were/are former frat bros, but he low key is an introvert.
I’m with you there! Never liked going to clubs or crowded parties. They always made me uncomfortable. I’d rather just hang in small groups, play games and discuss more philosophical matters. Lol
Zoomers love clubs. There's one that gets frequented by college kids that I work near and I swear there's always those dudes with that weird "curly mushroom haircut" lining up outside of it for blocks lol.
Maybe I’m in my own little bubble. Seems like most of my friends from hs just like gaming or house parties. 🤷🏼 oh god those awful haircuts. Yup please for the love of god don’t lump me with those mushroom 🍄 heads!
26 and never been to a club or bar but that's cause of social anxiety and lack of social skills 😁. I've always wanted to go to a club just to see what it's like in person though.
Not true at all lol people still love going to clubs. At most of the jobs I’ve had (restaurants) after work the employees would be heading to bars or clubs. At one of my jobs on weekends almost the entire staff working that day would head downtown and go to clubs. Clubs are packed every weekend and yeah you are in a bit of a bubble sorry
Could be that most redditors are also introverted so it’s an echo chamber here. I guess the stereotypes that men under 30 don’t know how to approach women and are wall flowers is not true. Had no clue clubs were a big part of this generation.
The people that spend the most time online are usually the most introverted people on the planet and the stereotype of the basement dweller computer geek still rings pretty true to life.
Note: I’m not an entirely an introvert by choice myself. I simply live on a ranch out in the boondocks so Uber doesn’t come to my house. I also hate drinking and driving as well so I try to limit the amount I go out to avoid DUIs. I do plan on getting an apartment in the nearby town though.
Where I’m from the legal age to drink is 18, so clubbing is always a massive thing from like 18-21. I find that when I go out now it’s still the same, so it’s better to find over 25 clubs or clubs with a higher entry fee where you get more of a mid 20s early 30s scene
Man, I feel the same way. I’ve had my time going out, I’d much prefer to go to my preferred bar and sip on the daily $2 PBR pints then spend $12 on a styrofoam cup of flat Sprite and cheap vodka. Although I guess PBR isn’t quality either haha
I’m 24 and if anything I just want to do these things a lot more. After the restrictions lifted in mid 2021 I was going out a hell of a lot and it was awesome.
I’m 23, and I used to go clubbing a lot when I was younger. Started at 15 or 16 and stopped at 19 I think cos I’d had enough lol. Went clubbing just a few times at 20-22, but that’s it. Haven’t been to any club since last year
I’m 24 and never went out to clubs. Too old to do it now so 🤷♀️ I’ll be 25 in December I kind of wish I went out but if I do somehow go out I’ll tell everyone I’m early 20s 😂
Wtf is the difference between 23-26? We’re more similar than not plus r/genz is nothing like me I can’t even have a civil conversation with the late 2000s borns on there they are unbelievable self righteous children. No reason to split up mid-late 90s babies when we’re all peers and in our 20s at the same time.
I had a roommate who’s born in 2004 during college exchange who said this and this was my exact reaction. But hey I was like him when I was 18 as well.
Clubbing with pure zoomers is weird everyone’s on their phones and they dance the same to TikTok songs. Partying post-covid is also hella a bummer.
The average age demographic in Nightclubs is late teens to mid-late 30s. 23 would be what us older-young guys aka actual young adults (late 20s- 30s) would be looking at as more or less still kids😂, too many of them in a club and I think it's a lame school disco and leave.
The last time I went to a club was the summer of '19. That was enough for me. I just want to chill with some close friends at the beach/park/house or something
I wonder if for younger millennials and Gen Z whether clubbing has declined. Alcohol is increasingly seen as more unhealthy, it’s expensive and netflix/smartphones are dominant.
I am 23 and have never gone clubbing before. Am I really too old to try that for the first time?
No not at all imo
Absolutely not. Most of the people wasting their money away at the VIP tables are like 30+ anyways (at least at the clubs I've been to). You just have to find the *right* bars if you don't want to be around college students or people who have fake IDs.

I think I was 25 the first time I went. It’s more fun going out when you have money to spend anyways
You’re never too old to do shit like that if you’re having fun. It’s not just for early 20s not by a long shot.
bro theres people in their 30s and 40s who still make it out to the clubs. You're fine
Nope
Same age as you and yeah nah this is the prime clubbing/bar hopping age! Going dancing, even if you aren’t that good at it like me, is such a blast. Especially when you get a few drinks in you
Same though I am not at all interested.
Wait since when is 24 too old to club lmao??
Same question
Seriously maybe 34 but 24 no way the majority of people at festivals/clubs are in their mid to late 20s
No not 34, the average age demographic in most clubs goes up to more than 34 clearly you haven't been to too many
What’s the average age then? And maybe I end up going to more bars/clubs where people are around my age. Also, no need to be a smart ass about it.
Even the 34 year old can club if they want imo.
[удалено]
Oh dear
I mean 24 is young. I don't understand how people is "tired" to hang out at that age.
I'll be 25 in a few months, and yeah I feel pretty tired. It's been a thing for me, just getting progressively burnt out. Having a hard time make ends meet between the car loan, rising rent, inflation, price gouging, low wages and egregious healthcare costs.

Literally. I bet every person over 30 is laughing at this. Most peoples brains aren't even fully developed at 24 and they think they're old 🤣
It all depends I guess, I’m just over acting all naive and stupid as well. I’m planning for the future, buying a home, investing etc. I’ll take a Netflix and chill night in with my gf over going to the club any day of the week.

Exactly. Also, some people are tired at a young age but gain more energy as they grow older.

As you get out of college it becomes harder and harder to really find what's "*going on*" as people tend to drift off and go their own route.
26 and never been to a club or bar but that's cause of social anxiety and lack of social skills 😁. I've always wanted to go to a club just to see what it's like in person though.

24 is the perfect age for clubbing lol
Im still a degen
A brief period in 2015 I went clubbing every week with my 30+ y/o coworkers. I got my fill and retired quickly lol.
Where I’m from the legal age to drink is 18, so clubbing is always a massive thing from like 18-21. I find that when I go out now it’s still the same, so it’s better to find over 25 clubs or clubs with a higher entry fee where you get more of a mid 20s early 30s scene
UK/Ireland?
Nope. Australia 🇦🇺
Never been, but I’m assuming drinking culture there is about the same as in the UK?
From what I’ve gathered, it’s the equivalent of Scotland (if you’re British, you know the difference).
Oooh I wouldn’t know the difference, here it’s a very binge drinking culture. You drink at the pace of the fastest drinker kind of thing lol
In Scotland, when you drink, you drink a lot. Dangerous amounts of Bingeing is a real issue in that part of the UK.
26 and never been to a club. Does not interest me whatsoever.
Man, I feel the same way. I’ve had my time going out, I’d much prefer to go to my preferred bar and sip on the daily $2 PBR pints then spend $12 on a styrofoam cup of flat Sprite and cheap vodka. Although I guess PBR isn’t quality either haha
I’m 24 and if anything I just want to do these things a lot more. After the restrictions lifted in mid 2021 I was going out a hell of a lot and it was awesome.
I’m 26 and have never been to a club. As much as I prefer staying home I would like to try clubbing sometime
Yep. Hangovers get worse by the year and too tired from work!
I’m 23, and I used to go clubbing a lot when I was younger. Started at 15 or 16 and stopped at 19 I think cos I’d had enough lol. Went clubbing just a few times at 20-22, but that’s it. Haven’t been to any club since last year

People under the age of 24 cant afford clubs lmao
Clubs are shit 80% of the time. I just go to dedicated music venues now, way less crowded and the performance is usually better
Catch me in the club when I’m like 60. I love dancing. Different folks, different strokes.
you early 20s zoomers need to stop pretending like older millenials
Wtf is the difference between 23-26? We’re more similar than not plus r/genz is nothing like me I can’t even have a civil conversation with the late 2000s borns on there they are unbelievable self righteous children. No reason to split up mid-late 90s babies when we’re all peers and in our 20s at the same time.
I would much prefer hanging out at home with a good friend or two than going to a club or party where you have to shout all the time
At 16 I was scared of growing up because old people didn't go to clubs and clubs were awesome At 20 I was so done with them
I had a roommate who’s born in 2004 during college exchange who said this and this was my exact reaction. But hey I was like him when I was 18 as well. Clubbing with pure zoomers is weird everyone’s on their phones and they dance the same to TikTok songs. Partying post-covid is also hella a bummer.
I'm 26 and the idea of clubbing at this point makes me want to curl up in bed haha

My 27 year old ass: you son of a bitch I’m in
I wonder if for younger millennials and Gen Z whether clubbing has declined. Alcohol is increasingly seen as more unhealthy, it’s expensive and netflix/smartphones are dominant.
