Summer festival returns to Gateshead with music, pop-up bars, street food and a Flower Power Sunday finale

A family-friendly festival will come blasting this August for the first time since the pandemic and helping it make up for lost time will be a packed summer play-list alongside street food, beer and cocktails.

Gateshead Summer Fest, which last took place in 2019, is to make its return on the August Bank Holiday weekend and will include Flower Power Sunday when festival-goers are being encouraged to add colour to the day by wearing their brightest outfits. There will be prizes up for grabs too for those that stand out the most.

The two-day event will be held at Gateshead Rugby Club in Low Fell; hosted by the team behind its annual Gateshead Beer & Music Festival. And regulars can expect the same array of drinks at a range of pop-up bars, plus BBQ food and summer-inspired dishes.
