Stage entertainment featuring live music performances from popular local acts including Abi Garrido, The Waiters and North Road.
The £2 charge has been introduced to ensure this annual event continues. Previously the event has been funded by Gateshead Council but due to budget cuts the event was destined to be shelved. Metro Radio has taken the event on but we have had to introduce this small charge to make the event possible.
We’re going to add some new entertainment elements with a big stage featuring live music performances from popular local acts including Abi Garrido, The Waiters and North Road.
