Newcastle Arts Centre has a central high street location only 100 metres from Newcastle Central Station and Metro. This popular and versatile group of historic buildings have been skillfully restored to provide a fully licensed theatre and exhibition facilities. The Centre can cope with up to 2,000 visitors per day and provide meeting space for as few as 20 up to a maximum of 200 people. Good acoustics and flexible lighting support good technical facilities that are matched by the Black Swan, a fine cellar bar, buffet catering and a programme of Salsa and cabaret evenings. The Arts Centre was opened by Prince Charles in 1988 and is now recognised as one of the most attractive venues in the City. During 1997 a total of 288 events were staged at the centre and there were more than 60,000 visitors. The Centre is within the City's 'Grainger Town Project' which has new life to the heart of the City. Newcastle Arts Centre reopened on January 6th 2000 after an extensive upgrade which includes a full time Gallery and the region's best art materials store. The Black Swan is available for hire as a venue for conferences, workshops , performance and private functions.
