WHERE

Newcastle upon Tyne

What it’s like

A private hire hall on the Tyne for birthday parties and celebrations of 70 to 300 guests, with a DJ setup and an outdoor terrace.

This is a venue you book out entirely rather than turn up to on the day. It's set up for celebrations with real numbers behind them, 70 guests at the small end and up to 300 if you're throwing a proper do. Inside there's an in-house PA system so a DJ or live band can take over, and an outdoor terrace for when people want air or the party spills outside.

For a family birthday, this only really works if you've got a crowd to fill it. Seventy is the floor they state, so it's not the venue for a ten-person tea party, but if you're planning a big milestone birthday with dancing and a proper guest list, the scale is the whole point. Catering and entertainment are both described as flexible, which in practice means you work out what goes on the night with the venue rather than picking from a fixed menu.

It's about ten minutes from Newcastle city centre by car, near the Quayside and Ouseburn, and they say the public transport links are good if some of your guests are coming without a car. Parking is free on-site, which is one less thing to budget for, and the venue is wheelchair accessible throughout. Being a private hire space, you're looking at booking well ahead rather than checking availability the week before.
