The Reeperbahn (German: [ˈʁeːpɐˌbaːn] ) is a street and entertainment district in Hamburg's St. Pauli district, one of the two centres of Hamburg's nightlife (the other being Sternschanze) and also the city's major red-light district. In German, it is also nicknamed die sündige Meile (the sinful mile) and Kiez. The Reeperbahn Festival is among the largest club festivals.[2]
