An all-action weekend will wrap up a summer of entertaiment at Central Park in Newcastle which is going out on a high, with plans already in store for its return in 2023.
The pop-up outdoor beer garden - dubbed the biggest in the region - is set to end its run on Sunday in Times Square where it has been busy serving up a menu of street food, summer drinks, events and big screen entertainment since its launch in April. It will be wrapping up the party with live action from the Anthony Joshua and Oleksandr Usyk II fight on Saturday followed on the last day by a show featuring Lindisfarne founder Rod Clements.
During its four-month run, Central Park - which this year increased capacity and added an upper level - has laid on a summer of sporting action as well as live coverage of the likes of Eurovision and has attracted almost 200,000 visitors, says its co-organiser Mike Hesketh. He added: "Plans are afoot for an even more amazing Central Park in 2023."
