The internationally known nightlife district hosted more than 30 clubs and was especially popular among younger people and residents of the metropolitan area surrounding Munich. Famous nightclubs within the Kunstpark Ost were for example the techno clubs Ultraschall, and Natraj Temple as well as Babylon which addressed younger party-goers. Beside the nightlife venues, the area also hosted many ateliers and craft enterprises. Additionally, the smaller neighboring factory site Optimolwerke was also converted to a party area in 2003, hosting popular venues such as for example Harry Klein, Milchbar, Bullit and Grinsekatze, and in further former factory halls named Georg-Elser-Hallen also concerts and club nights took place from 2000 to 2008. The Kultfabrik was closed at the end of the year 2015 to convert the area into a residential and office area named Werksviertel. The neighboring Optimolwerke closed in January 2018 and were demolished in the course of the same year.
