Geordies 'going crazy' for hot tub cinema as thousands set to party at Jesmond Beach Box this Easter

Thousands of drinkers are set to descend on Jesmond Beach Box each day over Easter weekend as the popular event returns to Newcastle for the first time without Covid restrictions.

Table bookings have been "flying out the door" for the free five-day food and music festival which will bring a bit of the seaside to the city centre. Located behind Holy Hobo, just off Archbold Terrace, Newcastle, the Bank Holiday event kicks off on Thursday, April 14 at 5pm and will run until Easter Monday, April 18.

However, the pop-up event will then continue throughout the summer with DJs and street food vendors, organisers The Apartment Group have confirmed. And this year's event looks set to be bigger than ever, with those behind the festival seeing hundreds of people scrambling to book tables ahead of the long weekend.
