The Meatpacking District is actually a nightlife zone

Both the Grey and the White Meatpacking District are, by the Copenhagen Police, designated as a nightlife zone. This means that certain convicts are not allowed to stay in the zone from 00 to 05.

The police can designate an area as a nightlife zone if there is a large concentration of bars and nightclubs in an area that is further characterized by having a closed character.

In the zone, persons convicted of crimes related to appearances in nightlife may not be present between 00:00 and 05:00.
