This is the age you’re apparently ‘too old’ to go clubbing

According to the public, 37 is the age it becomes too tragic to go to nightclubs, with 31 emerging as the age we officially prefer staying in to going out. The expense was the main excuse for six out of ten people, and a further 29 percent said that the hangover wasn’t worth it.

Research has revealed that 46 percent of us dread nights out, and would prefer to stay in and watch Love Island, regardless of the weather. 37 percent of respondents said that the most tragic sight on a night out is the adults in their 40s and 50s surrounded by twenty somethings in pubs and bars.

Nearly half said evenings out were no longer “their scene” and a further 14 percent whined about the unpredictable weather when hitting the town. Having to get dressed-up (22 percent), the struggle to arrange for babysitters (12 percent) and the aggravation of booking taxis (21 percent) were also among the reasons adults are rejecting a night out.

A long-suffering 13 percent of women said that wearing heels wasn’t worth the effort, while 46 percent said they love nothing more than changing into comfortable clothes for a night-in – and 44 percent said they like to kick back and relax for hours on end

Three in ten of the adults polled said a perfect night-in would be demolishing a boxset and nearly a quarter like to spend an evening in just on social media Eight in ten adults polled said they feel relieved when having a night in and they see friends posting pictures on social media of wild, alcohol-fuelled gatherings.

Matt Walburn, Brand and Communictions Director, Currys PC World commented: “The Great Indoors study recognises the fact that there comes a time when we appreciate our home comforts more than a hectic social life and it can often be a drag to play the social butterfly at parties and nights out.”

He added: “Technology is a big lure of staying in and our findings show how it’s transformed home habits, with Brits proudly investing in their households more than ever before. It’s now almost impossible to get bored at home, with endless box sets and the latest technology, such as 4K TV, enhancing the in-house experience, so much, that it often surpasses its ‘outdoor’ equivalent.”
