Newcastle like you've never experienced it before.
Created by North East theatre company The Six Twenty for #NOVUM26, this hour-long FREE interactive audio experience transforms the city centre into a living story.
Pop on a headset. Step into the story. See the city differently.
You Are Here: NOVUM is a playful audio and live performance trail where Newcastle city centre becomes a living map of stories, shaped by the voices of the people who know it best!
Setting off in a small group, you'll follow a trail through familiar streets as storytelling, sound and live encounters reveal the hidden voices, memories and moments that have shaped Newcastle. Along the way, everyday spaces take on new meaning, inviting you to see the city through a different lens.
Part performance, part exploration, and part love letter to Newcastle, You Are Here: NOVUM invites you to listen in, look closer, and discover something unexpected in the places you thought you knew….
You Are Here: NOVUM is FREE but pre-bookable.
