The Common Room Concerts 2024-2025

Visited for a classical concert. For me, the venue was better than the music (but it's a great venue for live performances). Apart from the great history of the building, it's stunning inside, with a great vaulted ceiling and stained glass windows. Very handy for the Central Station.

Beautiful building. Perfect setting for the candlelight concert. Would happily visit again,

Amazing experience. Beautiful venue and music. The staff were all lovely as well.

Only managed to get into this place just recently (since arriving in Newcastle in 2015) for a Candlelight Concert in the Wood Room. The room was absolutely stunning! Eventhough the room was kept dark, it was clear that it could easily accommodate an ample number of people. When you first walk in, a beautiful and towering carved statue is situated in front of you as a welcome. The stained glass windows, I believe is one of its focal points, and was amazing to behold, even in the candle lit room. Metal staircases flank the stained glass windows on either side, leading up to an array of paintings on the walls. I am hoping to come back soon, and during the daytime - to clearly see what other experiences this room holds!

Fabulous evening enjoying the music of Adele by Aurora Strings in the beautiful candlelit Wood Hall
