What's on?
The 13-mile Great North Run, from Newcastle-upon-Tyne via Gateshead to South Shields, attracts 52,000 participants every year. Since the first half-marathon in 1981, both serious contenders and people running for fun or charity have come to Newcastle to take part.
Visitors get a feel for the diversity of Newcastle and Gateshead by taking one of the two red City Sightseeing buses from Newcastle Central Station in the city centre. A multilingual commentary points out highlights, including BALTIC and The Sage.
American composer, writer and artist John Cage has made a huge contribution to the international creative scene, but this exhibition at Newcastle's Baltic Centre concentrates on his artworks. On show are some of the best of his hundreds of paintings.
The largest commercial art fair in North-East England, the NewcastleGateshead Art Fair offers an expansive range of unique artwork from local, national and international galleries. Most is available to buy, with prices ranging from under £100 to substantially more.
Celebrating the creativity of children and young people aged 0-18, venues throughout Newcastle are participating in Juice Festival. Featuring outstanding work created by children and young people from the region, expect a wide-ranging programme of eclectic exhibitions and inspiring performances.
