Stay and Play
NE1’s free, interactive play zone offering fun for kids of all ages during the summer at Old Eldon Square
It’s been a brilliant summer at NE1, as we welcomed loads of families to our free and fun-filled outdoors space - the Stay & Play Zone.
The response was absolutely incredible, with over 112,000 of you visiting Old Eldon Square across the summer, and enjoying some friendly competition with our interactive games and activities.
This year, we’ve been so proud to partner with Stagecoach for the summer, adding a range of transport and bus-themed games, activities, and interactive experiences to the Stay and Play Zone.
Want your business to feature in the Stay & Play Zone for 2027?
Following this summer’s huge success, we’re pleased to announce that we’re officially accepting expressions of interest!
If you’re a business based in Newcastle city centre, and are interested in finding out more about sponsoring the Stay & Play Zone next year, please email [email protected]
