Revellers kicked off their weekend with a visit to Oktoberfest in Newcastle.
The festival is being held inside a large Bavarian beer hall located in Times Square. Customers can drink German beer from a stein while listening to traditional music and tucking into a bratwurst.
The event, which is operated by Two Tribes Limited, is a local take on the famous Oktoberfest beer festival held in Munich, Germany, each year. It will run over three weekends in October, including the weekend before Halloween.
