newcastle’s christmas

After months of planning and collaboration, Christmas 2024 delivered a truly magical experience as we launched Newcastle’s Christmas in partnership with Newcastle City Council and NE1. The project attracted a record 1.76 million market visits and generated an impressive £90.6 million in economic impact for the city. Working together with Evnt Inspirations, we delivered an event that met the highest standards whilst remaining affordable for local families to promise a magical festive experience for all.

Our talented team offered a range of festive programmes designed to cater to all ages and abilities. Families visited Santa in his cosy tipi for heartwarming Santa Stories, where children hear enchanting tales from the North Pole. Little ones joined the elves at Elf School, enjoying interactive lessons full of festive mischief and crafts. Plus, live interactive stage shows took place on Rockin' Reindeer Stage, featuring daily entertainment packed with music, dancing, and Christmas cheer for everyone!

Plans are now in the final stages for the return of Newcastle’s Christmas Village in 2025, with preparations well underway to deliver a larger, more ambitious, and deeply immersive festive experience. Building on the tremendous success of 2024, this year’s event will see the introduction of a host of brand-new concepts across the site, designed to enhance the visitor journey and elevate the overall experience for customers.

From expanded entertainment zones and reimagined spaces to innovative new features, this year promises to be the most exciting Christmas Village project to date. With a continued focus on accessibility, quality, and community engagement, we aim to offer something truly special for every visitor.

Tickets will be launching soon, and with demand expected to be high following last year’s record-breaking attendance, early booking is strongly encouraged.
