Screen on the Green
NE1’s much-loved open-air cinema Screen on the Green takes over Old Eldon Square each summer with sensational film screenings and sporting action
Showing two to three free films per day from late July to early September at Old Eldon Square, Screen on the Green is the perfect summer activity. Grab some popcorn or a bite to eat from a neighbouring restaurant, relax in one of NE1’s iconic deckchairs and take in some top-class movies – from big blockbusters and family-friendly films to cult classics and rom-coms.
Alongside over 100 films, Screen on the Green also screens amazing live sports events including action from Wimbledon, the British Grand Prix and Tour de France.
There's plenty of fun for younger children too with Toddler Takeover - screenings of Julia Donaldson book adaptations featuring juice cartons for the little ones and rugs to cosy up on - and interactive outdoor play spaces including the popular Tiny Toon, a miniature village featuring tiny versions of iconic Newcastle locations and landmarks offering kids plenty of pretend play fun.
Last year’s Toddler Takeover will also return with screenings of Julia Donaldson book adaptations alongside juice cartons for the little ones and rugs to cosy up on.
Screen on the Green will return to Old Eldon Square, Percy Street, in summer 2025. Keep checking this space for info.
