About Neukölln

The conference venue is located in the vibrant northern part of the neighbourhood Neukölln.

Once known as a largely immigrant working-class neighbourhood, Neukölln is now hailed as the trendiest district in Berlin. Not only is Neukölln home to creatives, artists, designer labels and a bustling nightlife, but above all to people from all around the world. For this reason, Neukölln is the embodiment of diversity. The district’s multicultural character reflects in food choices, shops and events. Neuköllns lively mix can also be seen in the fact that many attractive Gründerzeit buildings, single-family homes, modern tower blocks and extensive green spaces coexist right next to each other.
