Hack Your NE1 Weekend | 20 - 21 July 2019
YAY FOR THE WEEKEND!
Time for another weekend trail through the Toon!
SATURDAY 20 JULY
Rainbow brekkie
Prepare for Newcastle’s Pride Parade this Saturday with Pride Breakfast at Northumbria Students’ Union. We can’t think of a better way to fuel-up ahead of the colourful celebrations. Whether it’s a full English, a bacon bun or sweet treats and coffee, you’ll leave feeling full and ready to go!
Spectacular storytime
Every story is fabulous at Seven Stories this Saturday! As part of Proud to Be Me Month, budding bookworms are invited to join Ben and Grandma Gladys for story time adventures like no other!
Meat feast
Saturday means one thing for the meat-eaters of NE1! Make your way to Mosley Street for Longhorns’ Dirty Saturdays - where you’ll be able to tuck in to the famous Dirty Longhorn sandwich with fries and a pint for just £9.99 (12pm - 5pm). Yum!
Blackett Street
The grass is back on Blackett Street for a summer of fun for the whole family to enjoy. Go here at the weekend for deckchairs, beanbags, fairground rides and giant games throughout the sunny season!
Pop-punk perfection
Japanese all-female trio, Shonen Knife, are taking to The Cluny stage this Saturday, bringing their feel-good, pop-punk charm to a Newcastle stage! Don’t miss an evening of mega music in NE1.
SUNDAY 21 JULY
Big builds
Pioneering northerners have been transforming our world with their clever inventions for centuries. Brilliant Bricks is a brand-new exhibition built by LEGO® creator Steve Mayes, highlighting what the North East has done for the world through 45 intricate models!
Howdy howdy!
As part of the SummerTyne Americana Festival 2019, families are invited to Sage Gateshead’s Big Family Hoedown! Don your finest denim, saddle up and unleash your inner cowboy and cowgirl. Yeehaw!
Sweet treats
Sunday is cheat day - and what better way to celebrate it than with a movie and some mouthwatering goodies at Tyneside Cinema? Sit back and relax as you enjoy oscar-winning sandwiches and sweet treats alongside a classic film on the big screen.
Yes chef!
Time to take to the kitchens at Chaophraya! Using the freshest ingredients and picking up top tips from the experts, prepare to cook up a Thai storm in NE1 this Sunday! Enjoy a fruit punch on arrival, an introduction to Thai ingredients and a short demo - before trying your hand at a bit of cooking before the all-important tasting session!
Game face
Get a group together and see the weekend out with a live escape room game at Exit Newcastle. Can you form a master plan and escape the Save The City game, the Volatile Labs game or The Attic game? Challenge accepted...
