Wylam Brewery is an event venue based within the historic Palace of Arts in Newcastle's Exhibition Park. The Palace of Arts is the last surviving building from the 1929 North East Exhibition and is now a Grade II-listed multi-purpose arts and entertainment space. Wylam has transformed the building into a distinctive venue combining heritage architecture with modern event facilities and a varied programme of cultural and private events. The venue's principal event areas include the Grand Hall, South Lobby, Tap Room and Outdoor Terrace. The Grand Hall is the largest space, with capacity for up to 800 standing, 300 theatre-style or 200 dinner guests. Its large domed interior and historic character make it particularly distinctive for weddings, performances, corporate events, exhibitions and major private functions. The South Lobby provides a smaller flexible setting, while the Tap Room is appropriate for more intimate gatherings. The venue benefits from its location within Exhibition Park while remaining close to Newcastle city centre. It has dedicated event-planning support, catering, audio facilities, natural light and outdoor space. The building also has a full marriage licence, making it suitable for wedding ceremonies as well as receptions.
The Grand Hall is the principal event space within the Palace of Arts. It sits beneath the building's distinctive dome and combines historic architecture with a large, flexible floor area. It can be configured for conferences, dinners, weddings, performances, exhibitions and large private events. The venue also lists 160 for cabaret/conference and 250+ for informal mixed seating/standing.
The Tap Room provides a more intimate event environment within the Palace of Arts. The venue lists capacity of 80 for informal standing/mixed events and 40 for dinner. It is suitable for smaller private events, meetings, workshops, dinners and team gatherings.
The South Lobby is a smaller flexible space suitable for receptions, presentations, informal gatherings and dinners. The current venue information gives it a maximum standing capacity of 120 and theatre capacity of 80. It can also be used as part of a larger event configuration alongside other areas of the Palace of Arts.
The Outdoor Terrace provides an additional external event area connected to the Palace of Arts. It can complement indoor events and provide additional space for informal gatherings and outdoor programming.
