Newcastle Arts Centre

@9ll3ew

Newcastle Arts Centre is a multidisciplinary arts and event venue located on Westgate Road in central Newcastle upon Tyne. The organisation operates from a collection of restored historic buildings arranged around Black Swan Court, providing a mixture of meeting rooms, creative studios, exhibition facilities and a larger licensed events venue. Its location is particularly convenient for delegates, being approximately a two-minute walk from Newcastle Central Station and Metro. The Centre's event-hire facilities range from small meeting rooms for approximately 10 people to The Black Swan Bar & Venue, which can accommodate up to 130 people when the two areas are combined. The Conference Room provides the largest of the dedicated office/studio rooms, with theatre-style capacity for 50, while Studio A and Studio B provide smaller workshop and meeting environments. The Black Swan is the Centre's principal larger event space. It includes a raised stage, PA and sound equipment, stage lighting, cabaret seating, a dance floor, bar facilities and an entrance lounge that can function as a breakout or refreshments area. The venue is therefore particularly suitable for conferences, networking, performances, private functions and cultural events. Across the hire spaces, facilities include Wi-Fi, screens, HDMI connections, projection options, power outlets and accessibility provisions. The combination of flexible rooms, an arts-focused environment and a licensed performance venue makes Newcastle Arts Centre particularly useful for smaller corporate, creative, community and cultural events.
