Welcome to NewcastleCity.live
A new community hub for Newcastle city centre, local events, an independent business directory, guides, and neighbourhood news, all in one place.
Welcome to NewcastleCity.live, an independent community hub for the heart of Newcastle upon Tyne. From the Georgian streets of Grainger Town and the bustle of Grainger Market to the Quayside, the Ouseburn and the university quarter, the city centre is the cultural and commercial heart of the North East, and this site is here to help you make the most of it.
What you'll find here
- What's On, a calendar of city-centre events pulled from real local organisers, from the Theatre Royal and Newcastle Castle to markets, exhibitions and live music.
- Directory, a growing guide to the independent shops, restaurants, pubs, cafes and services across the city centre.
- Guides & Blog, practical, locally-researched guides to eating out, shopping, heritage walks and getting around.
- Practical Info, the essentials on transport, parking, the Metro and everyday services in the centre.
We're just getting started, and we'll be adding listings, guides and events over the coming weeks. If you run a city-centre business or organise events in Newcastle, we'd love to hear from you, get in touch.
