Places to Visit in Newcastle upon Tyne
- Sage Gateshead: Sage Gateshead is an iconic concert venue that occupies a scenic location by the River Tyne. Despite its slug-like appearance, Sage Gateshead is worth a visit even if you’re not actually there for the musicians performing in its stellar insides. If, however, you are here for the audible art, the program is made up of timeless classic, brass, jazz, blues, folk, and more.
- Biscuit Factory: Located in the epicenter of Newcastle's cultural quarter, the Biscuit Factory is the UK’s most significant independent contemporary art, craft, and design gallery equipped with a delicious tea-dunking history. These days, visitors can explore two floors of gallery space and purchase works by more than 200 artists in a myriad of mediums, from painting and sculpture to glassware and furniture.
