The Welsh capital came out as the clear leader in the league table of Britain’s most sociable locations, closely followed by sociable Leeds and Newcastle.

the UK average number of social days and nights out attended. with Nottingham (52% below) and Birmingham (47% below) fairing the least sociable of the English cities.
Other cities that ranked as more sociable than the UK average included;
Newcastle (15%), Liverpool (13%), Bristol (7%), London (6%), Brighton (5%)
and Manchester (1%).
Sanchita Saha, the site’s CEO and founder of CitySocialising commented: "Having an active social life is all about meeting new people trying new things and discovering new places and we’ve found the best place to do this is Cardiff.
"Cardiff residents were well ahead of the UK average in terms of number of
days and nights out they were having in 2011.
"I don’t find the results of our poll too surprising as Cardiff is definitely one of our up and coming cities when it comes to being sociable."
She concluded: “The most surprising finding was that London, where we arrange over 50 events a month and viewed by many as the place in the UK with the biggest social buzz, actually only came in seventh.”

1. Cardiff 28%
