In the city of Zurich, a considerable party scene has grown in recent years. Where it burns, there is a fierce debate about whether the city should give priority to the demands of local residents or partygoers. The aim of the city of Zurich is to get away from the either-or view. That is why it has developed the new web contact point "gutenachtbarschaft.ch" under the direction of urban development and in cooperation with the Bar & Club Commission, the Night City Council and the Neighbourhood Conference. This combines information and contact offers for those involved and affected by Zurich's nightlife.

The 24-hour society and its effects are discussed intensively and controversially at the focal points of nightlife in Zurich. "Noise" is the most common keyword for an operation of the city police. The strategy focus on nightlife takes up existing, proven activities and, together with those involved and affected, focuses on pragmatic solutions. The Society and Space division contributed to this strategic focus.
