All the Fun of the Fair charts the history of Newcastle’s much-loved Hoppings fair, first held on the Town Moor in 1882.

Play with our unique collection of 50 vintage coin-operated amusement machines, perfect your pinball skills, and even find out your fortune.

As well as the hands-on vintage amusement machines the exhibition will explore the history and development of The Hoppings in a colourful, fun setting.
