- **Event Description**: The weekend of 24-25 October, we’re heading up north for a weekend of fun activities with the Newcastle Bears!

Catch the train from Central to Newcastle with the bears in the morning, arriving in Newcastle late morning. Alternatively, you can make your own way and meet us there!

We've got some fun things planned in Newcastle including Newcastle Pride Fair Day. Also, as always, you’re free to explore Newcastle on your own or with friends.

After that, we’re all meeting up to kick on at Bernie’s Bar, Newcastle’s best LGBTQ+ venue, who is hosting Newcastle Bears’ monthly meetup that night! Bernie’s boasts a great dinner menu, as well as a great selection of cocktails. Meet your northern kindred and catch up with the local scene.

We’ve also booked two entire floors of the Ibis Newcastle exclusively for us, with rooms on sale soon. Of course if you prefer, you can stay elsewhere, but if you’re planning on booking a hotel, book through us as we’ve secured a great rate.

Sunday if you’re not too dusty, we’ll explore the local area with our new friends, and then head home on the train just in time for the Sunday Social at the Townie!
