Lovers of all things festive are in for a treat as STACK Newcastle welcomes back everyone's favourite winter retreat - Hadrian's Tipi - to celebrate the start of Christmas across the city.
The pop-up, famous for its warming fire pits, festive lighting and cosy seating areas is back in action after Covid restrictions cut the event short in 2020. And things are already heating up – with the Tipi quickly becoming the prime spot for large groups, work nights out and party-goers alike to celebrate their Christmas gatherings in style.
There’s nothing quite like cosying up beside an open fire with a mulled wine or glass of bubbly after a busy day shopping in Newcastle or as part of your night out.
Feeling hungry during your visit? STACK Newcastle has everything your taste buds could wish for. Tuck into an array of tasty street food from the 12 independent traders serving everything from Bao Buns and Boojie Burgers to Thai delights and the best Parmo this side of the Tyne. The latest trader to join STACK – Redhead’s Mac n Cheese – will be giving their menu a festive twist, so don’t miss out on their seasonal Mac n Cheese delights.
Of course STACK is more than just a place to eat with live entertainment daily and this December, don’t miss a packed calendar of special festive events along with their usual live line-up.
This year marks the return of the popular children’s Mini Elves’ Party, which will take place in STACK’s main plaza area. The event is completely free entry for all to enjoy on Tuesday 21 December between 11am to 1pm. Expect entertainment from children’s characters, plenty of party games and a surprise visit from the man in red too!
The North East’s biggest sing-along event – Kroud Karaoke – is back for a Christmas special on Friday 10 December. Sing your heart out with friends and family to all the Christmas classics and get right into the party season. The line-up of festive events will also feature Paul Skerritt’s Christmas Swing sessions, quiz nights and STACK’s newest live music act – Rocks Off Jukebox – the band with no set list. With songs requested by the audience, have ‘your song’ played live to the crowd who always join in if they know the lyrics to create that famous STACK atmosphere.
