The biggest fanzones in Newcastle to watch the Sunderland v Newcastle derby next weekend
The fixture is just one week away now, and these are some of the biggest fanzones to take in the latest Tyne-Wear derby.
This will be the first Premier League match between the clubs in nearly a decade and supporters are getting ready for the weekend of action.
With just a matter of days to go until matchday, these are some of the biggest spots to watch the game in and around Newcastle.
NX fanzone
The music venue and events space regularly hosts huge event watchalongs including during England’s runs during major tournaments, and the derby is no different.
This year the site is hosting a live streaming alongside DJs and live music from Sam Fender tribute act, Scam Fender.
Tickets are on offer now through the venue’s website.
Frate
The bar and street food venue is also hosting an event for fans watching the game on Sunday.
Opening from 11am - three hours before kick-off - tickets include access to drinks deals, pizza offerings and a Dj before and after the fixture.
Tickets are available through Fatsoma.
Market Shaker Newcastle
Much like Frate, Market Shaker is offering drink and food deals as part of its ticket option as well as eight new 90 inch screens for the venue.
Tickets are available through Fatsoma.
St James Park Stack
Anyone without a ticket for the St James Park Stack site has already been told not to try and get in.
The site in the shadow of Newcastle United’s stadium sold out weeks ago. However, another city centre site is now offering tickets.
Pilgrim Street Stack at Worswick Chambers
The city’s newest Stack site is now open, and its second weekend will welcome Newcastle United fans for the derby.
Made up of three floors, the site boasts huge screens as well as plenty of food and drink options.
Tickets can be picked up through the new site’s website.
