Now it wouldn't be a post dedicated to Easter activity without an obvious pun, would it? But all jokes aside - it's time to delve into Sunderland's favourite social hub, to discover what food, events and entertainment await the thousands of customers expected to visit STACK Seaburn this April.
Located along Sunderland’s coastline, STACK Seaburn offers an array of local businesses, tasty street food, stunning sea views and a great daily entertainment line-up – making it the perfect place for a day out with the family, or lively hangout for beating about the long Bank Holiday weekend.
First up on STACK’s jam-packed schedule, the return of its regular Kid’s Events!
Give the little one’s something to get excited about, with not just one – but SIX live events taking place across the half-term holidays from 12noon – 2pm (Monday 3rd to Friday 14th April). The themed events will feature a range of favourite characters, dance battles, colouring in and a whole lot of fun.
And this year, STACK are getting ready to put on their first Easter Sunday show with leading children’s entertainers Let’s Party Events North East on Sunday 9th April. With an interactive hunt, stage games and a visit from the Easter bunny itself – this is the perfect opportunity to take a break from devouring those chocolate eggs and bust a move in STACK’s main plaza.
If talk of chocolate no longer tickles your taste buds, then perhaps STACK’s mix of worldwide cuisines and street food traders will. Sink your teeth into a Greek platter or gyros from Acropolis, before moving onto a thali tray of Big Fat Indian Kitchen delights. Maybe you’d prefer some cheesy goodness with Redhead’s Mac ‘n’ Cheese, or a meat and carb laden burger to rival them all from the one and only Boojie Burger?
In amongst STACK’s global dishes, you’ll also find a more traditional offer in the form of Downey’s Fish & Chips. A renowned family business serving crunchy, golden battered Fish & Chips accompanied by all the mushy peas and tartare sauce you could wish for. With Good Friday just around the corner, you can bet their fryers will be working overtime to give STACK’s customers their fish fix!
And for the lover of all things sweet, be sure to check out YOLO Coffee & Kitchen for their special Easter themed hot drinks and American style pancakes – after all, everything tastes better when you add Mini Eggs to it.
If all this talk of street food has knocked you into a food coma, maybe we can perk you back up with a health kick from So Smooth Co? Offering customers fresh juices, smoothies and a variety of filled bagels – this wellness first business use all-natural ingredients and zero additives to ensure you leave with a spring in your step!
Enough talk about food, STACK is also home to a great range of businesses offering grooming and beauty services! For bespoke brows and the longest of lashes, pay the lovely Laura at Arch Brow Bar a visit. Or perhaps you’re looking for a fresh cut ahead of a big night out at STACK – if so, Laing’s Barbershop is your one stop shop for modern and traditional barbering.
Speaking of big nights out, STACK wouldn’t be STACK without its usual live music offering – and the Easter bank holiday is no exception with a great mix of up and coming acts, alongside STACK’s usual mix of weekly bingo and trivia quizzes.
Headlining the bank holiday weekend, STACK will get set to provide a warm welcome to the ensemble band Hip Hop Hurray and Queen Tribute ‘We Are Champion’, as they take over the main stage for two roaring evenings from Saturday 8th – Sunday 9th April.
